Fair enough, but this can change.

And yet, writing tests is commonly known as a task
that developers don't really like to do, so making that even a tiniest bit
easier, is a good thing IMHO,
Anyway I won't argue about this too much, and on top of this,
I think that this patch series does *lot* of improvements that
do make it easier to write the tests.
Thanks for that, and I might also someday in the future do
some refactoring for the iotests. The thing that I hate the
most is that the tests don't have names....
