Your message arrived me 5 minutes too late; I've just committed a patch
as proposed by Paul and Glenn.

Let's see how this "clutter" is in the way. If people protest, we still
could apply what you have proposed (make it configurable, again; enable
it by default for suspicious test files; disable it by default for the
other tests).

Best regards, Michael.
