Should be covered using existing tests called out in the installation

Agreed, this is definitely manageable for F-14 using Adam's NTH
(nice-to-have) draft tracking process.

We talked about some additional test activities to run in parallel with
this Thursday's planned Acceptance test run [1].  Filing bugs for all
repoclosure [2] and conflicts [3] seems like a good fit.  I'll add this
