right, I did not want to highjack the thread with my wishlist.

And even then I would not want low-powered builders, but rather one
strong, “most typical” setup. I think it would already by a big win if
we ensured statically (heh) that every change to master has been
validated completely once somewhere. And if for changes like the one I
liked (removing dead code), as a developer I don’t have to laboriously
enforce this invariant (which I obviously then didn’t do), but can rely
on the safety nets of the infrastructure.

Greetings,
Joachim
