That effort should be taken. Because user don't know about thousands of upstream projects. Nor they really care. They just want that damn e-mail thingy to work. And I don't believe that it would/could be that huge. Anyway, I agree that testing cases is a good way to start and improving them must be first goal to achieve if someone would like to create such spec.
