For what it's worth, I've been using nose for quite a long time and the first 
reason I did so is, like you, because I wanted to write tests in a light way 
(without having to declare classes).

Then after writing some dozens of tests I switched back to wrapping tests in 
classes, just because it makes tests more readable and better organized 
(especially when you come to have setup/teardown functions shared by several 
tests).

(but nose is still very nice)
