What about invoking disabled test's (I prefix them with x) via the 
commandline. Is that a feature you will add ?


Another issue.. it could be nice if Test::Unit could detected if
there are disabled tests in the code.. and then output a warning:
WARNING: there is 3 disabled tests.
But it would dictate that all people also had to use an x prefix.
This last issue is less important to me.. but still something I
would be glad that Test::Unit had builtin. What do you think?
