introduce py.test.mark.nocollect
-------------------------------------------------------
tags: feature 1.2

for not considering a function for test collection at all. 
maybe also introduce a py.test.mark.test to explicitely
mark a function to become a tested one.  Lookup JUnit 
ways of tagging tests. 

have imported module mismatch honour relative paths
--------------------------------------------------------
tags: bug 1.2

With 1.1.1 py.test fails at least on windows if an import 
is relative and compared against an absolute conftest.py 
path. Normalize.

allow plugins/conftests to show extra header information
--------------------------------------------------------
tags: feature 1.2

The test-report header should optionally show information
about the under-test package and versions/locations of
involved packages.

make node._checkcollectable more robust
-------------------------------------------------
tags: bug 1.2

currently node._checkcollectable() can raise
exceptions for all kinds of reasons ('conftest.py' loading
problems, missing rsync-dirs, platform-skip-at-import-level 
issues, ...).  It should just return True/False and cause 
a good error message.

call termination with small timeout
-------------------------------------------------
tags: feature 1.2
test: testing/pytest/dist/test_dsession.py - test_terminate_on_hanging_node

Call gateway group termination with a small timeout if available. 
Should make dist-testing less likely to leave lost processes.

have --report=xfailed[-detail] report the actual tracebacks 
------------------------------------------------------------------
tags: feature

there is no way to induce py.test to display the full tracebacks
of the expected failure.  Introduce one.

relax requirement to have tests/testing contain an __init__
----------------------------------------------------------------
tags: feature 1.2
bb: http://bitbucket.org/hpk42/py-trunk/issue/64

A local test run of a "tests" directory may work 
but a remote one fail because the tests directory
does not contain an "__init__.py". Either give
an error or make it work without the __init__.py

deprecate ensuretemp / introduce funcargs to setup method
--------------------------------------------------------------
tags: experimental-wish 1.2

The remaining uses of py.test.ensuretemp within the py-test base
itself are for setup methods.  Also users have expressed the
wish to have funcargs available to setup functions.  Experiment
with allowing funcargs there and finalizing deprecating py.test.ensuretemp.

outsource figleaf plugin 
---------------------------------------
tags: 1.2 

Packages with external dependencies should be moved out
of the core distribution.   Also figleaf could serve as
another prototype for an external plugin. 

consider pytest_addsyspath hook
-----------------------------------------
tags: 1.2

py.test could call a new pytest_addsyspath() in order to systematically
allow manipulation of sys.path and to inhibit it via --no-addsyspath
in order to more easily run against installed packages. 

Alternatively it could also be done via the config object 
and pytest_configure.
