Users do indeed care about getting bugfixes and new features in a timely manner.
I'm not sure if this is the solution to that problem, but it would be good to have a way to make pushing packages downstream easier - decoupling the configuration/integration, testing and security code review steps.
This is a problem that the distros themselves need to fix, though, not Poettering.
