I agree that the overlong sed expression is not very readable.
Spelling the expectation out like this patch does would make sense.
A slight possible downside is that future changes in the test setup
may require updating two places now instead of one, but I would say
that would not make a very strong objection--after all, such future
changes may affect the line that is munged by the sed script, in
which case you'd need to change two places anyway (i.e. the previous
"expect" and also the script), and updating two explicit expectation
would be far easier than updating one explicit expectation and the
overlong sed expression.

Perhaps this wants to come much earlier in the series?  It felt a
bit distracting while reading the series in sequence, derailing my
train of thought.

Thanks.
