Keep in mind that even 'Not very important' things most often can
and probably should be MFC-ed now since HEAD and -STABLE are now
so close to being the same thing.  We have gone through a long
period of time where what was considered HEAD or -CURRENT was
drastically different from -STABLE (the 5.x versus 4.x branches).
But now we'll be going through a stage where we'll be putting out
at least a few releases based on RELENG_5 (5.4, 5.5, etc).  So
right now "MFC-ing something" means merging it into RELENG_5.
If you do not MFC it then it won't wind up in a release until
6.0 comes out.
