I think it would be insane to try to do something like serializable
isolation mode without having regression tests.  I would want more
tests than could reasonably go into the 'make check' suite to support
development, but it would be very good to have some go in there.

Do you envision some test suite committed to CVS beyond the 'make
check' tests, for "on demand" testing at a more rigorous level?
Am I missing something that's already there?
