I would say it's not really a Test:: module if it doesn't get use()d by 
tests.  Of course, Test::Harness and other harnesses have already 
invaded, so I suppose history wins again.  Is it too late to dub 
"Tester::" or "TestDriver::" or "RunTests::" or "AutoTest::" (or 
something) as the home for "things that run tests"?

I would like to see "multi" or "sets" in the name.  Provided that the 
svn stuff is not inherent to what you're building, maybe 
Tester::RunMulti or Tester::RunSets?

Turns out the optimal technique is to put it in reverse and gun it.
