I’m sorry, I must have missed the part where we advertised that master 
snapshots are a maintained 'release' suitable for use in a security-conscious 
context :)

Anyway, I have added an additional commit to my PR that removes branch 
priority: while it won’t solve the intrinsic resource waste that our buildbot 
system currently is, it should assuage the concerns raised in this thread.

Cheers,
