For finding this sort of low-hanging fruit (windfall?) any local

something is fixed, but just as often, tests gain leaks and the
blacklist gains entries".

To sum up: I probably won't be looking into Travis-ing such a blacklist
in the near future.
Yeah, I think that's the right path for now. Hopefully we can get close
to zero leaks at some point, and then think about adding this kind of
infrastructure. Thanks for talking it through.
