sidenote: I have an ansible playbook I use for processing the blacklist as
well, when I was referring to the intel-ci blacklist I was just referring to
the actual entries in it - I'm aware this doesn't let you pass the blacklist
directly to igt! But, I figured having behavior like this would enable
something like you're trying to do and make us more consistent with piglit
anyway

Anyway-thanks for the review! will push in a moment
