It is a reaction to that, yes. It would be nice to have a middle-ground
where you can run Actions on the official integration branches, but
contributors such as myself run Actions on *every* branch of their fork.
It does feel over-engineered, yes. I would not be surprised if Actions
supports something like this more directly, and I just don't know about
it.
