I think that there needs to be a way of running an extended set of

frequently. I thought about doing the extended set as a satellite
project, but that may not be workable.
There already is, isn't there? All of those named sets of regression
tests which aren't run by default.
Exactly. And there is nothing to stop us expanding those. For example,
it might be useful to have a suite that provably touched every code
path, or something close to it.
Incidentally, making the buildfarm client run extra sets of tests in the
main tree is almost completely trivial. Making it run tests from
somewhere else, such as a different git repo, is only slightly harder.
