I see your concern; you've convinced me.  I am willing to wait for the
nightly test to run to see if someone broke the build on other
platforms.  Lets say it would be _nice_ if you could test on
ns-regression, but it isn't mandatory to bugfix.

This practice however will be strictly enforced in the week or so
leading up to the release, as you suggest.
