Luke did such a test recently. It’s probably useful for feedback (right now, his two version are at 20 and 3 karma), but really annoying for commenters. I would recommend getting some beta testers instead (I volunteer). Even a small sample of readers should be able to catch most relevant problems.
Thanks! I did think it sounded annoying for commenter, and I don’t want to try the general audience’s patience much further at this point. Hence why I’m just asking a few people what they think of it in the comments.
Being able to calibrate myself objectively is an extremely attractive idea, though.
