Yes this could work - so for my-package I could just define
my-package:tests which would add an extra test directory to the package
in the store which I would copy the test results into.

The files will be small so I could just leave them in the store, but
also I could remove the my-package:tests once I'm done using the file,
to keep the store tidy?

It might even be possible to write something that augments this onto a
package automatically.

I'll give this a whirl and if I produce anything useful I'll reply with
the details.

Thanks!
