I've been vaguely reading the Schwernomatic commentary, and most of it
doesn't interest me directly. I'm not enough of a module-writin' guy to
see how it's gonna help me at all.
Here are my two concerns:
* Please don't make dependencies on *.t as the filenames involved. I'm
personally using Test::Harness to run tests on other files as well.
* Dependencies should be optionally based on something other than just
the timestamp of a file. For instance, I suspect I'd like to be able to
make the date dependency on "SELECT MAX(DateUpdated) FROM Foo".
