Sounds like a better approach than piling another workaround on the
test helper.  Reading the old discussion, we seem to have been in
agreement that we generally do not have to insist reading from a tty
and certainly the "add -p" codepath is not one of those "if your
other payload must come from the standard input, your instructions
to specify how to handle that data needs to come from elsewhere, and
that is /dev/tty" cases.

Thanks.
