And not all bugs are crashes fortunately :-), the poppler or webkit version used by evince and ephy is quite important for rendering bugs, for example.
And I cannot believe that we would refuse to make new releases of Totem, Documents, and Dictionary(!) except in coordination with gnome-desktop. Or that Ubuntu would enforce that coordination if we did.
