That's true. It would require a bunch of additional branches to make it
useful in core though, but it śeems like it could be a useful thing for
people to enable in their own personal forks/branches if they use github
for their largest feature development. Could be a good idea to for example
ave an example yml file somewhere on the wiki that people could put into
their branches.
