No, that's fine, really. I was just pointing out that, for some Internet-facing systems, this policy may be inadequate, due to the fast-changing nature of the Internet.
I disagree. The included Postfix works just fine. You have a very specific need that 99.??? % of the users don't have. This doesn't rectify such a major version jump. You can always install a newer version that has the features you need by yourself - as you did.
We have a mechanism in CentOS that allows for such functionality. Which is : leave the distro packages as is, and use the Plus repo for added of changed functionality that only a smaller percentage of the people might need. And I am offering to help someone work through the process of getting this package into the Plus repo.
Now the task of someone stepping up and taking on the responsibility is open.
