Is it possible do downgrade a central package without apt asking if you want to uninstall your entire system yet?

Apparently you didnt read about the update process.

What you do in debian is simply beautiful:

You rock stable and once a newer package is required, you install from backports. When a the package goes to a next stable version, you can remove the backports. It will transition automagically.

Take this and put it in your pipe!
