6 I'm all for making more use of features like test and collision-protect,
7 though in the past I noticed that many devs don't seem to care much.
8 I even think to remember of bugs getting closed invalid with a "we don't care
9 about"-comment. But if FEATURES="test" is considered more importand in the
10 future, I'll continue bugging you with related bugs.

12 However I think we have a long way to go till we can even think of enabling it
13 by default.
