An interesting idea. However, this would require updating all the existing 
tests including those that use its custom UI for `run/manual`.

Is it worth?  
I doubt it…

A good idea. The instructions used to be shown in the same VM. And the majority 
of UI tests don't cause the VM to crash therefore the complexity of separating 
instructions from the test UI doesn't seem to provide much benefit.
