No idea. I guess it'd be more of an avacado-test level thing, but I'm
not sure I know how to do it quickly.  I'm worried there's lots of
little things like this that'd be nice to test against, but "where do
we put this" is a recurring problem.

(Definitely not insisting on this being solved, and also wise enough
to not want to volunteer.)
