FWIW, I think we should keep the behavior of the TAP tests as close as
possible to the established behavior of the main regression tests.
It's certainly possible that there's room for improvement in that
benchmark behavior. But let's first converge the test behaviors,
and then have a discussion about whether we want changes, and if
so change all the tests at the same time.
