I didn't think on testing, but rather on using. I use the master branch with
all features included, without using every feature. I wanted to do something
instead of only talking about it and started it quite simple as a bare
repository. When it would be well received, we could of course do more out of
it.

I don't have any objections to it, though I initially thought it's more
interesting for people compiling their own Vim. When creating such packages,
we'd have to deal with naming conflicts - either allow coexistence and change
the installation path and executable names or you can't install it side by
side with the official Vim.
