Yeah, that's what I meant.  The existing version works pretty well with 
Test::Harness, but if someone (with GUI talent) wanted to write a nice Tk or 
wx or GTK frontend, it'd be nice not to have to parse Test::Harness-style 
results.

That's really more of a Test::Builder style change, though.  Worth 
considering for the not-near future.
