Part of the argument for requiring the package being SRU'ed to be available in the release to which you'd upgrade is that we don't want to regress users when they upgrade to the next release or prevent their ability to upgrade by creating a scenario for which an upgrade cannot be calculated. Having said that I installed the libsecret binary packages from -proposed for Focal and then attempted an upgrade from Focal to Groovy, this was successfully calculated and the libsecret binary packages were kept at the same version. Subsequently, I think it is okay to release libsecret for Focal.
