They shouldn't take a long time to track down - a simple backout + let the dev build locally without the "disable foo, bar & baz by default" pref set, will do the trick.

It's also worth bearing in mind that we already have many cases of devs not testing locally (or not even building locally!) before pushing to inbound et al. There is a good chance that less people will fall into that group, if we speed up their local builds by default. As such, even if this proposal caused additional instances of broken builds when people pushed to inbound, it may still be outweighed by the reduced breakage from more devs testing locally.

Best wishes,
