They had an accident with the mail server that's obviously supposed to
be relaying the tests and about 12 months worth spewed forth onto the
list toda

With TAP that'd require either adding a persistent identifier to tests,
requiring that the test numbering doesn't change over time (new tests
added at the end) or that there's some heuristic that attempts to track
assertions that have been renumbered.

You certainly could - but I tend to think of them as descriptions rather
than names and therefore not entirely ideal as the primary key. I don't

I've just noticed that the MediaWiki team have a test harness that
tracks the life of individual assertions over time:
* HTML nested bullet list, open tags (bug 5497) [Has never passed]
* HTML nested ordered list, open tags (bug 5497) [Has never passed]
* Fuzz testing: image with bog
