«Bugs which do not fit under above categories, but (1) have an obviously safe patch and (2) affect an application rather than critical infrastructure packages (like X.org or the kernel).»
I think that we could at least cherry-pick the patch that enables 1.5.x to read 1.6.0 files + lyx_1_6.py. Anyway, many of the other changes look safe to me (most of them being 4 to 10 lines long).
