while those are figured out", if I recall correctly.
Yes, that's exactly right. The orange/perf bugs are not major bugs, but
they're enough to keep us from doing a full landing. But meanwhile a
wider test audience is likely to shake out bugs that don't emerge from
our automated test coverage. We found a few bugs that way in our last
trial run. It'd be good to be able to work on those in parallel.

We'll be keeping an eye on telemetry measures like cache hit rate and
response time. The other feedback channel is to alert engineers and
other nightly users that this is happening so we're more likely to get
bugs filed.

This part doesn't make much sense to me. What is the goal of getting nightly
feedback if we know that there are unresolved test failures and performance
issues? Do we think that enabling it on nightly will help fix the known
issues?
What kind of feedback are you hoping to get from nightly? Do we have the
telemetry or feedback channels in place to measure what you need to measure?
