It would be really nice if we could define some sort of variable in
the ebuild itself with a relative cost metric for the ebuilds install
time. It wouldn't need to be precise, just ballpark figures so the
testing boxes can go "Ok, a full build of this will block testing
everything else for XUNIT time, is this worth it?".

Then you could have the primary test box exclude things over a certain
unit size and adjust the text boxes unit until the workflow is right.

( and then have auxliary boxes that test >XUNIT packages on demand or
something ).

I would also like a flying magical pony.
