Umm, people might not realize that I tend to be a bit over dramatic

Do we agree that the ability to capture STDERR (ordered correctly wrt
STDOUT) and test script exit status are desirable?
I propose that we prefix lines from STDERR with '! ' in the same way
that '# ' is used for diagnostics. wstat and exit can just be
wstat 256
exit 1
We also spoke about a hierarchical test numbering scheme to allow
groups of tests to be nested. Test::Block and Test::Group already
give a taste of how that might work. I'm +1 on that.
Also tags. I haven't thought through how they might be used. Anyone
got any ideas about that?
