Require-Bundle directives would help. p2 uses this directive to 
determine if the selected features and plugins can be installed on the 
target installation.

I am not sure if it's worth the effort to have new maintenance releases 
for the old versions. I would imagine there are not many users, if any.

We already have p2 repos like:
  http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler
  http://download.eclipse.org/releases/juno
  http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo
that contain the compatible release for the respective Eclipse 
simultaneous release.

Will it be good enough if we have them for Luna and later?

Yes.
