That's also why version-ing unittests is good. It lets you just 
run the UTs that you need to run. Got a new feature? Put a unique 
version just for that and run tests on those.

It gets trickier when you're dealing with features that go across 
multiple modules and such, but nothing that's not do-able. You 
can also combine them hierarchically if needed.
