No. Here i am talking about regular upgrades using sorcery tools, not
ISO upgrades

To get latest security fixes they should install latest stable
grimoire. So if i use stable-0.5 and have some security issues i
should install stable-0.6 and use sorcery queue-security. It means
that we don't provide support for stable releases. This makes our
process even worse than gentoo's (they use masking to mark stable
versions).
