The way I understand upstream's maintenance [1] and security [2]
policies, and how things went in the past: 3.x currently gets fixes
for "Severe security issues" only, but once Rails 5.x is out (Fall,
2015) this will stop.

So, I'm afraid this (admittedly crazy) option must be discarded
for Jessie.
