You then still need to update it in stable. And what if exactly the
version of mesa you *have* to ship with has that bug? Disabling OpenGL
in a stable release (read stable as not-changing) when you had it before
and it worked in (some) cases?

No way...

Such auto-update is different for virus definitions or whatever, but...
