Developers = Users. Many users have wanted the checks and dies reduced for a long time. Most users could care less about half the tests that run. I know I disable most of the crap that runs after src_install(). QA has always been and will always be a pragmatic effort. You cannot force people to run the software you want and you can't even force them to run repoman before commiting even though it's 'required'. You cannot force QA. In the end the only requirement is to not break shit, and we fail to meet that even with our current tools. │ИМ╒┤^╬╖╤┼(╝ ┼X╖┌X╛
