I struggled with whether to share this patch or not, because my motivation was 
pure laziness. I didn't know whether anyone else would find it useful/usable. 
Without maintaining a list of every 'testing' repo name for every distro, it 
would only be useful for Arch. Thank you for the big-picture perspective I was 
clearly missing. =D
