I always run my own regression testing as well, but I'm using a MBP Retina,
so that makes filtering real regressions tough since images are all
non-Retina. Also, I can't regress test other platforms/ports without EWS,
so I've made good use of the chromium-linux testing in the up until now.

However, I'm not suggesting delays to house cleaning. Just pointing out
that absence of the chromium-linux EWS will have its negatives as well
until we have reliable testing (with pixel testing) on a few of the Apple
ports.
