By extention, I'm guessing that means that while the: test_has_trailer $OBJECT $TOKEN $VALUE and: test_has_no_trailer $OBJECT $TOKEN test-lib-functions.sh helpers I floated may be acceptable (or not, no need to commit before you've seen a patch), you don't want me updating existing tests to use them. I'll just use them in my new tests, and folks can gradually transition existing tests to them as they touch those tests (if they remember the helpers exist ;).
