Honestly, I'd prefer if this test (and the SequenceTest that keeps randomly failing for me) get @Ignores and a JIRA then logged so it's tracked.
Random failures are extremely bad to have. If someone new (like Glen) tries to make a change and starts seeing failures, they could waste a lot of time trying to figure out why and can easily get discouraged. The other problem I have is if the test randomly fails during the "mvn release:prepare" step or "mvn release:perform" step, it's a pain to recover from.
