Given that it already exists, I'm not sure it makes much sense to delete it. Perhaps some folks prefer a workflow that is command-line oriented rather than web-browser based.
I don't really feel very strongly about it, though.
I guess we should do two things, really:
- remove it from the onboarding documentation so there are fewer choices /
things to learn when getting started
- *add it* to some documentation for itself, so that people know how to use
it.
While in its current state it isn't really useful to me, I would _love_ to be able to use this to spin off some tests ... if I could then view their output on the command line as well, and not just have to hit a browser immediately anyway :).
Here are my improvements:

I also wanted to update the tools to show status in command line and run a specific test/tests just like you would run trial on local system (without -b) ... but for next ticket.
For my project I have a similar tool which just runs a background thread and pipes the output of last builbot web status log into the console. It is ok for test which take a few second, but for test that take 40minutes I found email notifications much useful.
