I wrote both of these methods and this assumption certainly corresponds to my
own usage of these methods.
Thanks for the detailed analysis. I think you've figured it out.

The reason is simply that the window_tests take over your desktop, so you can't
do anything else while you are running the tests. Whereas the core_tests do
not, so you can check email or whatever while you are running them.
Perhaps we need a standard checklist of tests we should run before a release so
we don't miss something like this again?
I agree that this warrants a 1.7.1 release ASAP.
