Agreed, though at the same time, -testing doesn't get anywhere near
the amount of testing that we'd like it to. A lot of really nasty
bugs only seem to get found after we've moved them to updates-final.
Making it as easy as possible to enable those, whilst displaying
a warning is definitly in our best interest imo.
