Yeah, we've thought about it, and even asked fdo admins to install a
jenkins setup for continuous integration as a prelude to possibly
putting in gerrit to get testing along with the review process.  The
major downside to gerritt that I see is the loss of offline reviewing of
patches, which is how I do basically all my patch review.
