Thanks. I think I've seen something similar recently. I wonder if
it is an easy mistake our test linter can catch.

Even if it is too late, giving earlier exposure would by itself be a
good thing (just don't forget to resend after the dust settles, so
that it would land eventually).

Thanks; it obviously is a lower priority as we have survived with
the broken test for a long time since 2.26 ;-)
