Full ACK. > It's true that this probably is some distance into the future. IIRC, one of us has a substantial subset on this on their plate, to be done between July and September. Granted, the tests won't run automatically yet, but once we've got the platform ready to run it by hand, having it run automatically is not that far. >> I realize that the current implementation (--tags >> ~@skip) is trivial, and that implementing the logic I'm suggesting >> above would likely be more involved (right?). > Indeed.

Wow, I'm surprised this is not provided out-of-the-box, and I'm curious how others do. >> Maybe CUCUMBER_OPTS should not loseIn >> a potential existing value of itself, when initialized? > Sure.
