Great idea. I mean, as a non-[testing] user I get that guinea pig
feeling which comes naturally with linux often enough. Don't miss to
express that [testing] here is far from what other distros label with
"testing" and will hopefully break your system (because we want to
know).

Looks really like I keep missing all the fun.
What the hell, I'll add [testing] to my pacman.conf tonight...
