If we track oldstable, then every other year we're not using the oldest

track oldoldstable, which means every other year we're using a release
that's no longer supported. Or we flip-flop between them once a year,
when oldoldstable goes out of support.

Which makes me inclined to just keep the current scheme: use the numeric
codes and just bump them every 2 years or so when they go out of
support. And we can even put it off until the out-of-support release
starts causing problems like it did here.
Sounds sensible to me.  Thanks for thinking this through.
