Just to make sure that this does not lead to confusion: Each pull
request would obviously still target a single pull request, but if the
changes were to end up on release branches, the request would have to
target the oldest branch where the fix is applicable.

But yes, even though it doesn't lead to duplicate but logically
unrelated commits (such as cherry-picking generates), I'm not sure if
it would be feasible to require contributors to be aware of that, as
discussed previously.
