So while I don't think I'd vote for stopping the install because of an
expected pass, I don't think it's ever a good sign. The idea of
something working "better" than than the author expected is a bit
dubious.

I'm not so sure about that. One use case for TODO I see a fair amount is as a marker for a failure that isn't under the control of the author

{
  local $TODO = "damn that third party Fribble module - see RT#12455";
  ok( $o->fribble, "fribbled" );
}

where a succeeding todo test is almost always a good sign.
