We've seen why this won't work in the past... Too few users know how to do proper testing. We've had "please keyword, works for me" bugs for things that will always segfault on startup. We've had several people who think it'd be clever to automate testing reports. We've got enough ricers out there that clearly broken things would end up getting "works for me" spammed even more than they are already... -- Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Look! Shiny things!)
