Back when I switched from Debian to Ubuntu on the desktop, Ubuntu seemed
like a better sweet spot between stable and unstable than Debian did.
That was 5-6 years ago though.

Today, does Debian have the ability to run stock stable with certain
packages upgraded to bleeding edge through PPAs (or something similar)?
Maybe my GoogleFu is bring up info but it doesn't particularly look
supported...
