	Sounds interesting :-) are there some existing examples of clang
plugins that do this - or some papers / existing code that does this ? I
imagine we would want annotations in the code to help the unit-tester,
and also (I guess) support methods that create working helpful objects
to pass into constructors like documents, shells, filters etc. ;-)

	Added to the list for discussion; it'd be great to hear from you in the
ESC call on Thursday if you can make it on this topic. Then again - it's
less than clear to me (given the bulk of suggestions) how we'll
prioritize them to build a recommendation for a tender to do this =)

	Thanks !

		Michael.
