Right, but that is not the extend I was thinking for "optional". I
personally want to see it so that if the module being tested is not
present, the test is skipped, otherwise failing imports means there is
a test error. The patch only covers like five modules (most of which
are being removed) which have modules that are optional for some
tests.
