The original question -- whether the fix is immediately applied to FACTORY or not ("Factory first") -- this should still depend on the package maintainer, IMO. As long as the fixes are included in the upstream and a newer release is planned sooner or later, it's often not worth for extra patching, especially when the reported issues are trivial craps (as we've seen very frequently nowadays).
Security problems should be fixed in Factory too as Tumbleweed is a supported distribution.
Yes, but it's a question of timing, too. If the upstream release including the fix is planned soon later, it's often even safer to wait for the upstream release for a while than immediately tweaking with own patches. That's why I mentioned that this decision should depend on the package maintainer: you always need to evaluate the risk.
