IMO rather than pulling things into a separate repo, I would just remove/move the deb from the repo and leave the source in garage.

This way they may get repaired in the future but are un-installable to people that cannot fix them (people without scratchbox etc).

As an idea, if when things are deemed unstable and pulled from the repos maybe a warning could be send out on updating CSSU or whatever. Some users may have "stable-unstable" packages with no easy way of telling them. If not on TMO.

wifi-switcher is another broken package I believe.

In addition @int_ua what was that package you found with the broken QSettings? Did that get repaired?
