Making things too complicated will most likely lead to this continuing to drag on.
There's no harm in running coverage=true by default, right? Assuming it doesn't slow things down appreciably... Judging by the lack of response from anyone who works for Travis when we asked for an opinion on this, I don't think they would want anything specifically hard-coded in the default build scripts that deals with sending coverage results to coveralls. The easy, simple, non-controversial thing to do would be flip the switch to just generate the data by default. Deciding when to send the data, on which combination of OS, Julia version, etc should probably be up to the package author. Turning on coverage=true by default will just allow you to write that logic in an after_success: section of .travis.yml as opposed to having to also overwrite the default script: section.
