Have we stopped shipping Firefox yet? Or only provide it to users via snap? If not, we already seem to be able to provide security support for Rust-based software in stable. And that for software dealing with likely more hostile data/attacks than APT. For ports: they can just use an ancient APT version indefinitely as they don't have any security support either way... Fighting bitter rearguard battles by using other teams that haven't (yet) done work required for more broad Rust support as pawns doesn't seem too helpful for me, but rather goes into the line of toxic behavior...
