On the other hand, we intend on setting up a server that runs these
tests automatically. Instead of having to pull these tests from a
million different places, it'd be nice if this server could just
update from one dir and be done with it, which is exactly why I set it
up the way I did. I agree that this is kind of the enemy of nice
bundling of tests with extensions, but I think having an automatic
test setup that tests stuff /before/ it's released is more important
and more frequently used than providing easy access to tests to those
.3% of downloaders that are actually gonna run them.
