You're right, that's going to get a bit ugly.

I'd still like to see if we can make '.' work ... it's much more
natural than ":".

If it's just splitting on the tag, I can imagine ways to fix that (eg dumping
the tag and testname into the test level keyval for the parser). Though I'm
still not quite convinced it's broken.
