Just for kicks I wrote filter. With this, the above gives same result as:

find . -perm +222

At least after sorting both outputs, and as long as the fact that these
particular tests do not check the same thing does not bite you. Not sure if it
is useful. It is certainly not standard. As already mentioned, test does not 
provide the same set of tests as find.
