-main wasn't and still isn't a problem for the use case the PR 
was authored for, of "I want to run all my unit tests, *only*", 
and the approach of the PR approach was completely successful at 
making druntime much more friendly to that use case. It had zero 
impact on your use case, but you didn't sell it very well by only 
mentioning what for other uses was a very trivial inconvenience.
