Sure, but perhaps we should establish a means to evaluate the
usefulness of tests on a regular cadence. Tests *can* provide value,
let's not kid ourselves, but if we just turn them on and train people
to ignore and waive them, then they're worse than a burden, they're a
waste.

As part of enabling openQA tests, we should also establish a means to
evaluate the usefulness of *all* distro-wide checks.
