I thought it might be useful for third-party libraries, or even
non-testing situations (although obviously the latter wouldn't be very
common). But, yes, a starting point could be test.support. It would also
avoid having to write unit tests and docs :)
In this case, I would like to do it as a part of the nntplib patch.
