I'd like to suggest adding an argument to the test command, `--locals`,
that simply passes `tb_locals=True` to `unittest.TextTestRunner()`.
Currently it looks as though support for adding custom test runner kwargs
was improved in 1.11 with ticket #26981 whereby one can provide a custom
test runner and override `get_test_runner_kwargs()` however I think it
would be nice to be able to examine locals without having to setup a
custom test runner.
Please note that the `tb_locals` argument was introduced in Python 3.5, so
this would need to be taken into consideration.
