If automatic copy to SiG's repository is possible, or maybe for Core 
devs to copy it them selves manually would do it.

And I have not said Core repo would hold back updates until everyone 
test it. Please read more carefully, because I said COPY CURENT TO SIGS 
REPOSITORY AND THEN PUBLISH UPDATE, so nothing is broken on systems 
using SiG's repository. I hope this was more clear explanation.
