Note that these setups should be shared across multiple tests. I.e.,
you shouldn't need to write the "create a random data file" multiple
times. And we have some C code that does a lot of this already
which you might want to leverage.

That's the big question.. It's written on a GnomeCanvas and.. quite
annoying. The new register-rewrite will make it easier to test,
obvioualy, but that's not finished yet.
