This is where things sort of break apart: if I understand PJE's proposal 
correctly, this is one that won't land before some time (6 months? 
more?) which means that we'll have to leave through the pain of manually 
testing for a while. So we can't count on this rearchitecture to ease 
the short or even mid term QA pain.

Now, it's better late than never for sure. It also doesn't prevent us to 
use John's script recording (despite its limitation) to ease the pain in 
the meantime.
