upon further thought, I don't know if here or emacs-devel is the place

The duplicate detection is not a part of ERT library. It is our own
testing in testing/lisp/test-duplicates-detector.el
So here would be the place :-)
In a longer test it might end-up being 1) tedious to roght, and 2)
difficult to follow.
An alternative would be a `should-ignore-dup' macro...
WDTY?
I am confused.
What should that macro do? How is it different from
`org-test-ignore-duplicate' macro?
Something like
(defmacro should-ignore-dup(&rest body)
(org-test-ignore-duplicate (should ,@body)))
So that we could write:
(should-ignore-dup (search-forward-regexp "^Hello!"))
...
(should-ignore-dup (search-forward-regexp "^Hello!"))
IMHO it be more compact than
(org-test-ignore-duplicate
(should (search-forward-regexp "^Hello!")))
...
(org-test-ignore-duplicate
(should (search-forward-regexp "^Hello!")))
