I've been thinking, I miss progress bars with subunit.

However, forcing test enumeration up front is bad, and a 'tap' approach
of saying 'there are 4000' tests interferes with filters.

So, how about a progress specific feature:
progress: X/Y
where X and Y are whole numbers.

Filters that delete tests can choose to increase X, or decrease Y,
before passing it on (or even eliminate it altogether).

Calling countTests on a ProtocolClient would give you Y, for the last Y
seen.

Or something.
