I'd support this strongly, both as Warner Losh, Committer and as Warner Losh, Security Officer. My current job uses -stable and needs to have it be sane at "all"[*] times, or we waste a lot of effort bringing in and backing out unstable versions (we do some sanity testing before bringing a version in, but there's only so much you can do). I'd be able to work on this on an irregular basis depending on how saturated I am at work.
