Awesome, this will likely be quite handy.

Btw, dunno how hard this would be to do, but in Launchpad the test
runner has something similar but uses regular expressions for matching
tests.  So you could do something like:

 ./run-tests store

which would look for and run all tests matching "*store*"
(test_tagstore.py, test_datastore.py).

This could be helpful if we want to split up tests into more files but
still be able to easily run a set of tests, like all the 'signal' tests,
or all 'plugin' or 'tree' tests.

(Actually it appears you've committed this to liblarch_migration, not
liblarch_rebased.)
