Indeed, we've also done exactly that in the past in order to pick up bug fixes critical to our environment or support for newer versions of dependencies, and other times we've injected backported patches if the situation called for it. Quite a flexible solution overall, though in part because we build and deploy with a CI/CD system that speculatively exercises the resulting container images in a production-like configuration to make sure we don't break something obvious with an upgrade, patch or config change.
