Ubuntu recently implemented this in their britney instance, see the
commits starting by
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-release/britney/+git/britney2-ubuntu/commit/?id=2775a5435ca04a11f9692054ffdf5bd3bc1982fa
I also concour this is a great idea, but I wonder if this should rather
go in britney2 (as Ubuntu did) or somewhere else, and whether it should
be maintained by the release team or some other team; I already find
weird that the testing watcher is not run by them.
