This kind of automation would also be useful for semantic 
versioning. By detecting whether a PR would cause any existing 
projects to not compile, we could automatically determine whether 
to apply it to the next minor release.

Unfortunately, that wouldn't distinguish between patch and minor 
releases, but probably a decent heuristic would be if any new 
compilable / runnable testcases were added.
