Correct, stable recieves only security fixes and fixes for other
release-critical bugs (failing to build, being broken on some
architecture etc). Fixes for non-showstopper changes are not accepted.

warzone2100 would be eligible for security updates if any are found.

Personally I'm leaning towards leaving warzone out of testing/stable
until 2.1.0 is released and uploading to backports.org when it is
done.
