Unfortunately not, as both future and past stable branches have been
used in the past by distributions as a source of patches for those
maintaining LTS releases.
Additionally, these branches are authoritative as to what we
previously released, and are needed in the event we need to make
another release of these branches.

We therefore need to operate notification hooks on all stable
branches, past, present and future.
