Well, we'd treat them just as any other non-release-blocking-but-still-
kinda-significant media, I guess - like the Xfce images, for e.g.
There'd be no need to drop the tests from the matrices, but they'd be
done on a best-effort basis. We could still have openQA do the 32-bit
testing it currently does (right now we only really test install of
live media, but I may get around to adding a few of the 'desktop' tests
to openQA before this cycle gets too busy).
