WEll, it totally depends on the culture you've

myself fall into the latter camp.
In case you didn't notice, though, 18 of the 19 failing tests are
actually unimplemented features, not regressions. :) Maybe it would
be best if we removed the TODOs altogether. Then we would get,
appropriately, passes when we have no regressions, and failures on
regressions. People might actually even notice when regressions crop
up! (How long has that 1887 part 2 thing been regressed?)
