Paul,
Maybe I am becoming intrusive (or is it obstrusive ? elusive ?) but this first
statement seems strange to me and I don't understand why inheritance
should entail project management problems. After all, this is the
point of OO concept: write once and inherit behaviour. 
OF course I am not aware of your particular architecture but  I believe
that this is a matter of inheriting a single Suite class that
will group all your test cases. Testing is designed in one place (the
interface) and executed in many places.

Ignoring test failures in multiproject builds (only) ? Once again, not
sure I understand stakes at odd and problems specific to your
project. This does not seems to be a problem to me.
