So, what is the syntax for <excludes></excludes>? Am I correct that this
goes in a <plugin>..<configuration></configuration> section? And am I
also  correct that I will need to include the defaults (i.e., exclude
"Abstract*"?

I'm finding the documentation not quite clear on this.

Dave is right that profiles are the right way to go about this.

You can change the includes/excludes of the test plugin (or even skip
them all for a project) based on the profile in use.
