These changes all seem very reasonable to me. I'm not so sure about the
last one. Perhaps the framework ought to generate an appropriate subdir
name using the test file name plus the node name, so that instead of
tmp_XXXX it becomes tmp_001_master_XXXX or something like that? Having
be a coding convention doesn't look real nice to me.
I didn't try to apply your patch but I'm fairly certain it would
conflict with what's here now; can you please rebase and resend?
