My concern with changes like this is that it's just adding to the complexity of
the definitions of important test groups. I think we need a new
section/heading at the end of the file as the place to put these special test
runs (esp. the manual tests). For jdk_core_no_security then my strong
preference is not to hack the existing test group configurations, instead add
this to the special runs section at the end:
jdk_core_no_security = \
:jdk_core \
-:jdk_security
