Well, until we follow through with our thread of implementing per-test
scratch directories for iotests, it proved invaluable to me during
testing (as a failed test does not properly clean up after itself).

Matches what other tests use. You are right that I could get away
without it, though.

Ditto.

I'd rather keep the filter (makes it easier to copy-and-paste between
other tests, especially if it does matter down the road)
