Yes, we really want to provide supported backports, and that means there must 
be testing. Creating a bug report doesn't take more time than testing the 
backport in Mageia 1, so I don't think this will be a big overhead, apart for 
packagers who don't test their backports themselves. 

To summarize :
- you are free to submit in backports_testing (so in a certain way the package 
is available in Mageia 1 directly)
- for the package to be promoted in the official backports media, there must be 
a QA validation

Best regards
