Well, no if there is a good reason for using a main method, I guess
that's ok. It's just that it is a deviation from the standard JUnit
cookbook (or so it seems to me, and I'm a Junit newbie), so it is yet
another thing that has to be documented and remembered...

This illustrates another problem with deviating from common JUnit
practice: I works in the harness, but you may not be able to use other
utilities developed for Junit...

Hmm, yes I see your point, but derbyall already takes a long time,
doesn't it?
