RE: Window 1.0 test suite

Maciej, 
 
The test suite is a great piece of work.  I have question and a suggestion: in the test suite you have the following directory structure:
 
/WindowTestSuite
  ecmascript
    browsing-contexts
  publish
    html
      browsing-contexts
    shared
      browsing-contexts
    svg
      browsing-contexts
    xhtml
      browsing-contexts
  scripts
  
Some of the code in ecmascript/browsing-contexts is repeated underthe publish/shared/browsing-contexts directory. Which is the canonical form? I'm guessing it's the one in ecmascript. The publish/shared directory contains some test harness code too which is cool.
 
The html, svg and xhtml directories play the role of test harnesses for various ecmascript hosts. Presumably we'd accept contributions from people who want to write harnesses for other bindings and hosts. Is there a better structure to help with this?
 
Perhaps the first subdirectory of the test suite should be the binding with subdirectories for the harnesses and actual tests. Maybe something like:
 
/WindowTestSuite
  ecmascript
    harnesses
      shared
      html
      svg
      xhtml
    tests
      browsing-contexts
 
The test assertion framework should come out of this tree into a separate area for reuse by other components e.g. XHR. I've already rewritten my XHR method tests to use it so we're consistent. I'd like to be consistent on the directory structure too.
