It will not. One might regret this but the policy for updates to etch
is really strict and meant to avoid regressions *and* endless
discussions to decide whether a given update is "safe" or "important
enough".

And, even with that policy, I and the samba packaging team had to work
on 3 successive updates to the samba package, for instance..:-)

Of course. Definitely. I suggest reporting the bug with a patch, of
course. Unless, of course, you are certain that upstream will include
the new feature. In such case, there's no need to report it in Debian
as well.
