We cant really reduce the number of updates without changing the design 
of the project. The previous method of backporting has been replaced 
with the goal of sticking close to upstream versions as much as 
possible. What can possibly be done is to mark every update with a grade 
from say 1 to 5 and have the updater use a higher number for users who 
only want the very criticial updates

Any other ideas?
