Yes, this is one of the benefits I touted 2 years ago when I asked for
module RTInfo -- we can use this information in the runtime to
instrument how we run unit tests.
We still don't have module RTInfo.
And yes, then it can be a library solution. unittests are a language
feature, but only in how they are compiled and linked. The runtime is
fully responsible for how they are run. All we need is a way to tell the
compiler how to describe them to the runtime.
