Yes, let's get this documented and go with it for now.  I talked to zyga on
irc about it and he seemed happy with the last thing I proposed.  It will
probably need some tweaking, but I think that should be pretty close unless
someone can see a reason why this won't work?

it's purely speculation at this point.  If it's just a matter of needing a
server to run against, we may *want* to have a stable server to use for
things like this, and just have them all use the same thing rather than
deploying a second machine to act as a server.  If it's really a test with
two component parts, it may make more sense to launch them as separate
jobs.  I think that would be a reasonable approach, but lets revisit it
when/if we have something that absolutely requires it, rather than spend a
lot of time trying to design around something we don't have need for right
now anyway.
