Oh Yes. I have some plans to start something called the LTP-MM tree which will somehow cater to your requirement, and, will also contain test cases which tests features that are still to be part of mainline kernel. So, these test cases will later be moved to the LTP stable tree once those corresponding features become part of mainline kernel.
