would a PR for `dmd -unittest=<pattern> (same syntax as -i)`

so when this came up on irc earlier (was that you?) this was
the first thought that came to my mind. I'd support it, tho I'm
no decision maker.
I guess it was me talking about it two days ago on IRC...
Almost exclusively I need to run unittests only in the module I
currently work on and it really makes no sense to run other
unittests at that point of time (unless I explicitly want to). I
would even go further to say that we basically need to be able to
run particular unittest.
What I do at the moment is that I developed this kind of practice
to have a test_runner.d top-level module in every D project of
mine that contains tests I do during the development of
particular feature TDD style, and then once I am done, I move
this code to appropriate unittest blocks in my final module...
There are bunch of issues with existing support for unittests
that could be solved to make unit-testing a really pleasant
activity.
