Ideally open a ticket a submit a diff. That's what I do (although I can
actually commit) for things which are unclear, unfinished or need
discussion, see e.g. #2732.

The tests should run as well. We probably cannot upload the detailed
results anywhere. There is some basic text output however. Perhaps we
should add option to gunittest to not generate the detailed output at all.

The other issues that it takes much more time then compilation and it needs
to download data.

Finally, the tests are still not at 100%, although we are pretty close:

Probably yes. I don't know how difficult would be to sync Git repo also for
release branch. I'm also not sure about differences for Travis between Git
solution in comparison to Homebrew but I suppose you do :)
