I was rather assuming that was what we were talking about here, since we have 
in the past discussed testing things like dump and restore, which would require 
something like Perl to handle multiple processes, and wouldn't work very well 
for a regular release.

I think if we have the ability to add tests that are not distributed, it gives 
us a lot more freedom and opportunity to test things that are not currently 
well-tested.

Best,

David
