I am not sure if that inconveniences will be minor.  Is this too
contrived an example, for example?

  check () {
        pattern=$1 file=$2 script=./runme

        test_i18ngrep "$pattern" "$file" &&
        write_script "$script" &&
        test_expect_success "check $pattern" '
                "$script"
        '
  }

  check foo file <<-EOF
  ... test script comes here ...
  EOF
