Also, suppose you use the web UI to update a test and then an update
from a branch pulls in an update to the same test?  (This is starting to

I was thinking more like a test where only privileged people can submit
a job that runs the test and where the results of the test can only be
submitted to a stream that has the same visibility as the test, or
