I don't think this would fit into EAPI, to me it's an implementation
detail of the package manager, or why should the ebuild care about it?

It's the best way of ensuring that ebuilds have a working src_test.
Arch teams need this.


Any arch team that wants tests by default on their arch can just add test to FEATURES in their arch profiles; magically the users running that arch will get the tests run (with USE=test set) by default. Users who don't want tests can always turn them off in make.conf.

So I struggle to grasp why this must be mandated via EAPI, since the arches who want testing could just turn it on.
