The following trick, calling "pending" from inside the before block, effectively does what I want. But I'm wondering if I can count on this
behaviour going forward? What do you think?

Pending is not going anywhere.

I didn't think so... I was mostly concerned about the fact that I am
(ab)using it by calling it from inside the "before" block...

That doesn't strike me as abuse :)

Glad to hear you think so!

The truth is, sticking the check in the "before" block "feels" right, at least to me, because asking "can I run this example?" is something that I (obviously) want to do _before_ running each example. Bonus is that the examples in question print out the pending message rather than just disappearing into the nether.

In contrast, nesting all the affected examples inside a large "if" feels much nastier.

Cheers,
Wincent
