sebastian: continuing our discussion from Bug 1254353, I agree that a Gradle custom configuration would be a great way to quickly start building new Android UI for Photon. If you just want some new layouts and resources, and to run some new tests in automation, we can definitely move ahead with that -- and trust that either we'll get to Gradle builds in time for Photon, or that somebody (really, me) will be able to make the moz.build system work when the time comes. However, there isn't a good story if you want to significantly alter things that go into omni.ja. If you foresee a lot of XUL/HTML/CSS/JS changes, then you're stuck with a feature flag and (potentially) shipping additional stuff in mainline Fennec while your custom configuration evolves. (Although it's possible to not ship things based on the feature flag; see jchen's work in Bug 1351000 for example. You just can't "overlay" replacement functionality. This is too hard to change in any reasonable timeframe.) For a Gradle configuration, I think you're empowered :) You probably want custom flavour dimensions -- http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system/user-guide#TOC-Multi-flavor-variants -- so "mainline", "photon". Unfortunately there will be lots of places in the tree that will need to be bumped to refer to the new dimension; I see about a dozen at https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?q=regexp%3AAutomation(Debug%7CRelease)&redirect=false. You could arrange to test multiple Android configurations in one job by adding targets, but you'd need to either steal the Gradle builds for Photon, or add new build jobs, if you want to run Robocop for "mainline" and "photon".

I have filed few suggestions as bug 1388650, bug 1388651, bug 1388653 and bug 1388654. May I ask for review/triage, whether those are valid and can be fit into the Photon UI refresh?
