Good point. It's an issue now that we want to be able to pass signoff,
but when the split was introduced it most definitely wasn't 8-)

Would the norm in this case be to introduce the test in the same
commit, or in a previous commit (as in: this is the feature we want to
implement, it obviously doesn't work now, but the next commit will fix
that), or in a subsequent one?

Good point. It becomes a bit bigger change though, so I'll probably
split it off in a separate commit now.
