Yes, this is one of the benefits I touted 2 years ago when I asked for module RTInfo -- we can use this information in the runtime to instrument how we run unit tests.

We still don't have module RTInfo.

And yes, then it can be a library solution. unittests are a language feature, but only in how they are compiled and linked. The runtime is fully responsible for how they are run. All we need is a way to tell the compiler how to describe them to the runtime.

ModuleInfo does actually exist, but it's not documented. I'm not sure if it's usable for this purpose though. Maybe?
