You may want to wait until we get mustella running clean on Erik's Azure VM. In the meantime, we can discuss details. I think the simplest implementation is to add to each script some way to hide a bunch of folders and un-hide them after. I'm pretty sure mustella -all simply runs down the set of folders it finds in mustella/tests. There are other ways to subset, but I think that happens after compilation, so hiding folders is probably better. I don't think it is worth trying to implement some sort of email/failure consolidation subsystem. If we get 20 Vms running and you get 20 failure emails if you bust UIComponent, too bad ;-)
