So developer A checks in a fix on 2.7, then gets sidetracked before
forward porting it.

When does it make it to 3.2 or the main development branch?

Does everyone doing a forward merge from the maintenance branches run
the risk of being landed with the task of doing a bulk merge of any
forgotten forward ports before they can forward port the fix they're
actually trying to implement?

Cheers,
Nick.
