Right. That code should change. My intention is to go through the whole of the Python test suite and make them compatible with the new unittest features.

I also intend to add extensions to unittest to allow listing of collecting tests and filtering tests by name (at the moment test filtering is by filename only which is useful but not enough)... The first task is to add extension / plugin machinery to unittest and then these use cases become easy - so I will not implement them on their own in unittest until the plugin system is done.

At the same time I don't think there is any point (although I wouldn't argue with) in adding code to do this directly to test_support when it is going to be added to unittest anyway.
