this makes it real easy to count tests even when you do loops and
functions, so it makes almost of all the reasons for using no_plan go
away and when it doesn't it allows you to localise your no_plan to a
specific block while continuing to count all your others.
I like that. I quite often rub up against inconvenience that would be
solved by being able to have nested groups of tests in a single test
script.
