I use Debian as well, and I follow the unstable branch, doing a dist-upgrade every evening. How much more rolling would you like? :-)
True, I don't use it for production (read: anyone but me depends on it), and I check the list of changes before throwing the switch, because every few months there may be a case where some things would happen that I don't want to follow. Usually waiting a couple of days straightens it out.
Nonetheless, but it’s what I run on my main computer, and I don't remember the last time it was even close to being hosed— at least a couple of years.
