I don't think posting a preliminary patch, while continuing to polish, with a note that you're working on that and plan to commit soon, would slow you down that much. There's pretty obviously a difference between an added 10 line test, taking 30ms, and what you did here - and that doesn't mean what you added is wrong or shouldn't be added. And I don't think that expectation has anything to do with being anti-test.
