This is so awesome. What a great idea.

Google code only lets project members (who also get svn write access)
edit the wiki, unfortunately. But here's my recipe for use with
emacs/emacsclient:

1. Make sure you're running emacs server -- put (server-start) in your
.emacs, or if you just want to try, put it in some elisp file, select
it, and M-x eval-region.
2. Set your EDITOR to emacsclient (or if like me you're trying out the
emacs snapshot on ubuntu, but haven't chosen it as your active version
yet, set it to emacsclient.emacs-snapshot)
3. nosetests --tty --tty-edit-cmd="%(editor)s +%(lineno)s %(filename)s"

This will pop the file up in a new buffer (if you didn't already have
it open, or bring up the old buffer if you did)... make your edits,
then C-x # to send it back to emacsclient, which will exit, and you
can continue on your merry way in the tty.
