Oh? Huh. I'd thought it would be much more complicated. Well, by all
means, let's do it then.

I'm not personally convinced that the existing regression tests all
belong in the "default" section -- I think a lot of what we've chosen to
test or not test to date has been fairly arbitrary -- but we can tinker
with that later.

So we'd want codecoverage and codecoverage-parallel then, presumably,
for Robins tests? Is there really a reason to supply a non-parallel
version? Would we want to include the core tests in those?
