Thanks - as I'm prototyping this it isn't tested yet - as you can tell. 
This is fixed though. It is nearly in a condition where I can write it 
up for this mailing list and python-dev. I expect it to still change, 
but I've been discussing it with Jason Pellerin who reports that the 
system is basically fine for "nose2" and he is porting a couple of the 
nose plugins to it. I'm very interested in feedback.

All the best,

Michael Foord
