cool.

* options should be added in an explicit order (putting them on 
  a class randomizes the order).

* with the py.test-1.1.1 is it now possible to register a plugin
  via a "pytest11" setuptools entry point.   Nose has such a 
  mechanism as well, so we should use this for integration
  with the tools. 

* with py.test coverage is always run, we probably need some 
  "--cover" option which defaults to False and does not do
  any coverage changes.

I've implemented a diff that addresses the two last points. 
see the attachment. 

cheers,
