Moving runnable code out of Documentation/ into tests/ or tools/ as
appropriate has been a long-term goal, and some progress has been made.
I don't really think we need a KS session for it, I don't think
there's really any disagreement here; it's just a matter of getting the
work done.  If you see something that would be better placed elsewhere and
have the time, just send a patch making the change.

Thanks,
