It is not an 'intention'. A volunteer, mhoes, worked on a script to run lcov,
I helped him make that script jenkins ready, and found a home for it.

you said:beside you said: "another that would be helpful would be a
box creating lcov reports, say once a week,"

This exist and has been running daily for months...
It has been mentioned in the ESC call, back in March, a couple of
times.. the minutes indicate that you where present and even commented
during that topic.
And the 'documention' for other to _use_ is:
go to lcov.libreoffice.org

Running ./configure with '--enable-debug' '--enable-python=internal'
'--disable-online-update' '--without-system-libs'
'--without-system-headers' '--disable-ccache' '--disable-coinmp'
'--srcdir=/home/tdf/lode/jenkins/workspace/internal_lcov_master'
'--enable-option-checking=fatal'

No. it is an automated job that do a debug build, run make check and
run lcov on it, daily.

Patch welcome.

I stepped-in to make resources available, I'll be glad to help anyone
that want to improve on it, secure and access the necessary infra
resources.
But I'm not volunteering, at this time, to adopt the baby.
