I don't think that this sort of comment fits in test.
It would be better in guide perhaps or reference.

Concerning test:

We might find, after we have not had successful implementation reports, that 
tests involving both inverseOf and oneOf need to be moved to the extra credit 
section (or some other device to mark them as too difficult); in which case 
some explanation would need to be offered - but I would hope that would be 
reflected elsewhere.

Concerning the comment:

A different move would be to decide that documents involving both constructs 
are OWL Full, which would be a small substantive change, which might better 
reflect this conversation.
