Big +1 on that, Oli. In a project with a 5-digit number of packages it's simply impractical to stop the line every time some regression happens, especially if it's known and triaged. We have already moved way too much into the "add manual process and bureaucracy" path of landing changes, so we already have a very low landing rate. This is now the anti-thesis of our original "velocity" goal. I think the compromise of keeping the development series going, but simply keep daily images as "-proposed" until that is fixed is the right way forward here.
