After reading Martin Briza's reply, we could have a Win 7 and Win 10 column, yeah. But e.g. for dual-boot, I always test just with Win 10 and hope the community does the rest :-) I'd probably do it the same here - it should be OK if at least one of those fields is populated, not require both. Alternatively, we can have a single column and recommend to primarily test on Win 7 and Win 10 in the test case description (and hope that people will submit multiple results for this from time to time, and add a note to indicate what they tested with). I don't have a real preference here.

What do we do if one or both of the Windows fields fail? Or the macOS one? Our release criteria don't specify a host system at the moment.

Also, should we split Fedora systems per arch (x86_64, armhfp)? I don't want to have a too much exploded matrix here, I'd keep it architecture-less I guess.
