Is there any possibility of getting a '-p whatever' that would semi-intelligently pick a desktop platform that isn't overwhelmed with build/test jobs? For the kinds of bugs I work on, I don't really care which one it runs on. I sometimes approximate this myself by seeing in the most recent pushes on Try which platforms have actually gotten a test going...
