While I'm reasonably OK with doing this, backports rules mean that I 
need to wait until there's a suitable version in testing, and I'd much 
rather wait until at least version 1:10.0p1-3 is in testing since the 
current version in testing has an RC bug.

No promises about bullseye; it will depend on how the test suite looks 
there, and the rationale you give only really seems to apply to 
bookworm.
