100% tested code?

It was just a few days ago I was talking to some guys on how to setup their development environment, how to apply some good development practices, setting up the build system, automation and so... Our focus was on testing and mostly TDD then the next day I came into this crazy idea on Aslak's blog and a tool called Guantanamo.
The idea is to remove any untested code on building process. The tool can be exposed as ANT task to do the job! Frankly, all I've ever used, have been reporting tools such as Clover to give me an estimation on where I'm going, and they didn't touch my code because of untestablity! Really don't know how I would feel if I miss 20% (or any X percent) of my code in the software bundle becasue I've been lazy to not go for full test coverage? :D But after all, I like the idea!
How do you see this?
