Yes, that was what I meant.  

We could have a "test_skip='under construction'" without any
PREPARE_FOR_MAIN_BRANCH in 1/4 and then replace that with the
endgame state you already had in 4/4, alternatively, which might
already be enough explanation for a short transition period that
lasts just few patches ;-).

No, you understood what I meant perfectly.

Thanks.
