hmm, would it make sense to add a new masking for the testing
tree, so users could decide which stability grade vs they wish ?
or perhaps use overlays for that ?

For example, I'd like to have the critical packages (everything
that's needed to bootup and do basic remote maintenance) from
the new frozen-stable tree, but other things should stay as
they are.
