It's not entirely clear if bail out means kill the testing process or let the process finish but don't start any more. If it's the former, then just kill everything. If it's the latter, let them all finish and don't start any more. -- THIS I COMMAND!
BAIL_OUT and parallel tests
What should parallel tests do if a BAIL_OUT is encountered? I think all parallel tests currently running should be allowed to finish so they can attempt to cleanup, but no more tests should be started. Does this sound reasonable?

We need to display something to say we're waiting for tests to complete - then the impatient can Ctrl-C them :) -- Andy Armstrong, Hexten
