I don’t think it’s suitable as-is: the test needs network,
not just root, and that’s critical in itself.

While I’m not the pbuilder maintainer, there’s a number of
things I’d like to see addressed:

• Selection of which mirror and distribution to use;
  Debian sid is not normally bootstrappable mind you,
  so it would have to be a stable release

• Absolutely ensure that only (gpg-)validated content
  is ever run

• Consider using breaks-testbed to let people run this
  test only in a throwaway VM

This is an “instinctual response” – maybe my concerns
are unfounded, maybe they’re true…
