For what it's worth I'm now prototyping the extension mechanism for 
unittest/unittest2. Anyone who wants to follow along can look at the 
"plugins" branch of the repository at http://hg.python.org/unittest2

It is still early days - only 3 extension points and 4 example plugins. 
coverage is one of the example plugins I will be looking at implementing 
in order to ensure that the plugin mechanism is adequate. Not done yet 
though...
