Great work on this Ian. A very very welcome change. +1 on the proposal (just
updated with my vote). And a few comments.

Regarding the testing... the way you did this is clever :) I think it is
fine for now since it is constrained to a single test class. However if this
pattern pops up again I think it might be worth looking at an alternative
like parameterized tests with junit 4 [1].

Also regarding where this work should take place. Is the intent to commit
this on 2.1.x or not? Often when a significant change like this is
implemented first we apply it to the trunk only, and this gives the change a
bit of extra testing among devs who are using the trunk. Usually if there
are major unforeseen issues they are flushed out within a week or so, making
the backport to 2.1.x smoother. Might be wise to do do that here as well.
