 This ticket is only about automatic updates, so only some locales could be
 used with automatic updates. If we want a particular audience to use
 nightly builds every day, we can add that locale to the list, so I don't
 think we need a different system.

 Great. It seemed I actually mis-read the ticket first, but reducing the
 locales just for testing purposes first would have been a good plan
 anyway. :)
