My usual approach with backports is to apply them back until either (a) they don't apply or (b) I reach the first tree which is out of security support. In the case (a) I make a personal decision whether to either (i) spend my own effort adapting the backport or (ii) tell someone (the submitter, often) and give them the opportunity to supply a backport. In both cases (a) and (b), the nominal support status of the old tree is a factor, but not determinative. I avoid making /any/ changes to trees which are out of security support, to avoid giving them the appearance of being alive.
