Designating something as an expected failure seems to be a good way to
track minor issues that need eventually to be resolved. As a user, I
frequently update with make up2 just to avoid getting bitten by stupid
errors that might sneak into master. Is it really that much extra work
for a developer to run the same command before committing and either
fix the error or mark it as a known failure?
