Tests more restrictive than BPs

I think that we need to clarify whether we intend to test compliance
with the BPs or do something new. This is something that should be
made clear before going further writing the tests.

Are people who have implemented the MWBPs supposed to be able to use
these tests to check what they have done, or is this something new?

>From what's been said before, I get the impression that the tests,
Basic and Pro, are intended to cover gaps in the BPs. For example
(chosen only because its the first example I have at hand), under
ACCESS_KEYS, "Should this Pro test go further than BP and encourage
the use of numeric access keys?"

If we do that, then people will have a double workload as they will
have to study both documents (perhaps three if Basic is kept separate)
and figure out what they have to do, which I think is asking too much.
