How is "for a specific branch" different from "against a particular
branch?"  it seems as though you're repeating what I meant to say (?)

I don't see a relationship between the two issues.  The ability to
request test results against a specific branch has obvious utility;
you can try out changes and see how portable they are without
disturbing general test results.  Independent versioning, by it self,
does not address that need.  You'd still need to implement all the
same testing infrastructure, so I don't see the relevance here.
