Yeah, that is an issue, but it's not really a new one. I think that
falls under the general issue that submitting any kind of
platform-specific issue causes all of the builders to build again.
I think this problem largely goes away if there was a way to indicate
that a submission should _not_ go to buildbot automatically. I'm not
sure how the gerrit/buildbot integration is done, but would it be
difficult to have another pseudo-branch, for example like
'refs/for/master-nobuild'? Or use a topic like refs/for/master/nobuild?

That would make the problem go away, since someone can then force the
build for a specific platform via the buildbot web interface.

I think we could do what you propose by making different builders that build only certain branches, but I don't prefer it. I think it would be better to schedule certain builders to run tests on a scheduled basis. We could add tests to certain gerrit-triggered builds when we are happy with the results.

You can manually specify gerrit changes to be tested through the buildbot web interface.
