I know it's not directly PostgreSQL related, but I'd love to see the
dbt* code improved. Items on my wish-list:

- make it easy to run the test framework and clients on a seperate machine from the database server
- keep results in a database
- provide a front-end to allow users to schedule tests in a queue
- add support for windows, at least for the database (theoretically possible to run that way now, but you have to do
everythingby hand)
 

Another idea: afaik, spikesource is still offering a bounty for
improvements to OSS test suites, something that'd fit well with SoC.
