Agreed. I've noticed how usefull this is w.r.t. testing of prereleases 
of MacPython.

Adding a script in that runs all tests would also be usefull. This 
would have to  run all test_*.py scripts in a new interpreter: It is 
highly likely that some tests will depend on having some modules loaded 
or not loaded (e.g. testing if importing AppKit makes available extra 
categories on a number of Foundation classes).
