Which is the same when running the test manually. That doesn't mean we
should automate the other 95% that matter.

Again, I don't see this as an issue.

How and when other platforms make releases doesn't affect us.

Automated, why?

Having it done several times I really feel that manually running the
functional tests is the biggest issue.
