It's worth noting that there's already a preliminary commit of this stuff here:

http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/scipy/browser/branches/testing_cleanup/scipy/sandbox/exmplpackage/tests

For now we put it in exmplpackage just so Matthew and I could quickly
coordinate, but I think he's working on propagating that throughout
more properly across the whole codebase.

But that directory already has a small readme (to which your email
could be added) as well as a little example, the test_foo file, that
showcases the various features.

Cheers,
