I have cleaned it up.
Now there are like 7 or so remaining.

Yes, please.

There is a long list, so I wonder if other devs can also review this and make sure everything is backported or remove the label if the plan is not to backport. Or did I misunderstand how to use the label?

Indeed, it should be used like this:

- PR is submitted against master
- in case that it is relevant, the label "backport_needed" is set
- testing is done
- in case it is merged:
   - either the PR submitters themselves backport (with git
cherry-picking that's very easy) and unset the label "backport_needed"
   - or, if not possible, then the remaining label indicates that this
is still to be done.
- in any case: once backport was done, unset the label "backport_needed"

Does that make sense?
