Has anyone considered allowing try pushes to run only specified

What do we gain by having results that can't be trusted?
It could be a win if the results are misleading infrequently enough
compared to the time savings that the expectation time for getting a
patch to stick on m-c decreases. That depends on the P(result is
different between try and clobber) and the time saving, neither of which
I know, though.
