The *real* problem isn't the testing.

It's the assumption that you can actually *do* anything useful with this data.
Name-n-shame probably won't get us far - and the way the US works, if there's a
large cartel of BCP38-compliant providers calling out the offenders by name,
you might encounter an offender that finds it cheaper to send a lawyer chanting
'restraint of trade!' or similar rather than actually fixing their problem....
