Something like this would be also very very useful for the Anaconda installer &
helthy compose flow. Many failed composes and installation problems are often
not issues in Anaconda itself, but the many tools and libraries it interacts
with changing behavior and breaking the installer & compose generation.

If new build of these components triggered the Anaconda test suite, lot of this
breakage could be averted and fixed early on before actually affecting anyone.
