ANN: PyUnitTestBrowser

I wrote this because...

A> at work we have a hand-made proprietary test runner with no GUI that
philosophically diverges from PyUnit, and...

B> after hearing about the miracle of TestFirst for years and only using
CppUnit once, I developed a (glowing) mental image of what graphic test
runners presented that in no way paralleled the actual (dim) reality.

My effort challenges Leo.py, a literate editor for Python that, sadly, has
no awareness of unit tests.

So to put them together, I allocated resources at work (me), to write a
greenfield GUI test browser for our rig. Then I ported all of the relevant
features back to PyUnit, out to LGPL instead of Private, creating
PyUnitTestBrowser.

Also, I discovered another missing feature about PyUnit (and the other
*Units I have interviewed). All of them seem to have neglected to include
their own unit tests in their distributions. This sentence refers to
itself. >sigh<

Sancho has a simple set of unit tests for itself. (Brain-bending to
write, as I recall...)
