I definitely wouldn't want to use API like you proposed if I was to
write my own test runner. Minimal common ground which would be cool to
have is getting range/array of all unittest blocks together with their
annotations. Anything more than that is optional luxury that specific
test systems may define.

And any usage of classes in what is supposed to be a base ground API is
immediate "no" for me :)
