I guess you'd want to have a beta on a certain quality level to make
sure it really gets tested... if it won't install on a lot of systems or
is completely unusable you won't get the testing you like. Even a small
bug like the non-starting panel from rawhide will cause a lot of
potential testers to just give up.
