It seems this and previous fixes should be backported to 2.7. Perhaps there should be a 'backport 2.7' keyword to check on issues that might be but have not been.

The “Your issues” list is very helpful and works well for me. This bug is still open and assigned to me (and opened in my web browser, incidentally), so I don’t fear I’ll forget it. This new keyword would IMO be redundant with existing fields (status:open + version:2.7).

(The once-existing 26backport was entirely different if I recall correctly, it was used to tag 3.x features to be added to 2.x.)

Regards
