Well yes.  We can say "this is a sound design, and we
believe we can make it work well.  Let's merge it and
get going on it".

That's perfectly legitimate and sensible.  But it would be
better to not have to go this route just through lack of tools
or effort.   Probably, this is what we'll end up doing :(   But
we'll be much, much better off long term if we have those tests.

How do the BSD and proprietary kernel developers evaluate
their VMs?
