MarkW,

I'm actually for getting this in even if it were slightly unstable
ATM.  I think any improvement to the testing framework is of critical
importance.

As for the plugin... if you can add it under
"http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/tools"; and inheriting the sonatype
parent pom, then we can run a snapshot release for development
purposes and then an formal release of it just prior to the 1.8.0
release
