I just rebased the retry-lock and message-properties series (separately) on top of your commit without conflicts, so it's probably not that big of a deal. Do you think it's worth documenting what the supposed groups of tests are (maybe in tests/README)? The groups could really use some cleaning up. For example, we have at least two set groups of emacs tests. Some things will be harder to classify, of course. That's why we [1] believe in tags not folders ;). Nonetheless, perhaps it will be useful to have things a bit less chaotic. Eventually we might even want to support the idea of running a "group" of tests. d [1]: except those who believe in searchs, not tags.
