Well, at the individual test level, yeah, but I'm talking at the suite or
even module level.  I'm hardly going to go renaming a product folder
and then have to globally change the product name in all referring code,
that would be a huge mess.  (Sure, I could use sed or whatever, but
make one little mistake and you might have to wipe out your sandbox and
start over from square one...)

Would be nice if test.py allowed you to specify an order
to run suites in.  I'm going to go look and see how hard that
would be to hack in.
