What do people think about teaching miss-islington how to re-launch specific CI runs a few times to deflake failures? ("1 out of n passes counts as a pass") - That requires compute resources, but when it is what the human is going to need to do anyways... why not reduce the need and just automate it the first couple of times? I don't know how feasible this is for any given CI system we use today on CPython given the various ways in which they operate.
This can also be done with a loop inside individual tests, which would avoid complications with CI APIs and make sure that if any new flaky tests show up then we'll notice it.
