I could live with that, but why do you think it needs to
be separate?
The T::H documentation makes it quite clear that there are
plans to check for additional keywords (beyond /^(not )?ok/
and "Bail out!") in the future. (See the "Anything else"
section.)
By the way, aside from a desire to avoid lots of class
layers, I stored the dependency data in the H::T::Straps
object. It is that class that I'd need to augment, and since
it is in Alpha mode I figured now was the time.

I could replace Test::More::diag() with a version that uses
STDOUT. Does that mean the goal of capturing STDERR listed
in T::H's TODO list has been abandoned?
