I wasn't aware there were Ubuntu users who wanted this. I assumed most people thought of the release cycle/stability as a "feature", particularly if their desktop is running some mission-critical service and can't risk it breaking with a random update. If they wanted rolling release or bleeding-edge kernel, I'd assume they'd go to something like Arch, or perhaps to a lesser degree, Fedora.
