Well, you have AT_BANNER for headings, and AT_SETUP for groups of tests
and AT_CHECK for one command to test. I meant grouping under AT_BANNER.
But looking at how things are at the moment, maybe there is no need to
change that.
Other than that, maybe we can use AT_KEYWORDS to our advantage. Have
not thought yet how.

Hmm, you have RUN_IF_FAIL and RUN_IF_PASS options. I don't know whether
you are supposed to feedback on stdout or stderr, however.
