The problems haven't really changed every time someone brings this up. Running untrusted code from the internet isn't impossible (eg. Travis, Heroku, Lambda) but it requires serious care and feeding at a scale we don't currently have the resources for. Until something in that equation changes, the best we can do it try to piggyback on an existing sandbox environment like Travis. --Noah
