Yes, that would probably work. I'm not sure if buildbot is flexible enough to handle that kind of scheduling. cc'ing catlee.

Instead of using Nightly, could you use the last green test run's Gaia master 
branch commit id as the replacement for a nightly branch commit id?

That only works if code gets uplifted to nightly regularly, which it isn't any

What's the bug tracking the fixes to automation -- can we prioritize these 
fixes?

Regarding TBPL tests, the removal of nightly will be problematic for sheriffing.

Currently, we run Gaia UI tests per gecko commit, not per gaia commit.  (We 
have plans to do the latter, but it's a little complicated getting it hooked 
up.)

On each gecko commit, we run the tests twice, once against gaia's master branch 
and once against gaia's nightly branch.  If a test breaks against both, the 
sheriffs can assume it is a gecko problem.  If a test breaks only against 
gaia's master branch, but not against gaia's nightly branch, then sheriffs can 
assume it's a gaia problem.

Without gaia's nightly branch, we won't be able to make that distinction; 
sheriffs will have no way to know if a bustage is caused by a gecko or gaia 
commit, which will effectively make them unsheriffable, at least until we get 
tests running per-commit to gaia.

Can we postpone this change until buildbot is capable of running Gaia tests 
per-Gaia-commit?
