Yes! Why is this accepted??

Gitlab has a way of running CI locally (for Docker based builds anyway; who knows about Windows or Mac) but a) it doesn't support the same features at the "proper" one (even basic ones like the `default` key) and b) they deprecated it!

Ok in fairness they've stated in a random comment that they won't remove it before providing an alternative.... But still, how is this not a core feature of all CI systems?
