I wonder how many of the targets actually need this behavior (it's
intentionally useful to them) vs they grew to depend on it accidentally.

biased against yet another TEST_* group because it's hard enough already
to make sense of the existing ones. Maybe it's better for the test to
"declare":

PRESERVE_TEST_DIRS
