I wasn't aware of bzrlib's extentions to unittest — many of them, including KnownFailure, TestSkipped, bzrlib.test.ExtendedTestResult.expectFailure, and the sundry list of bzrlib.test.TestCase.assert* look useful enough to belong in the standard library.

I agree 100%. Twisted came up with some of the same things independently, and for a lot of things, we've stolen bzrlib's ideas.

I think I've filed a couple of tickets with patches along these lines. I'll try to get my act in gear and finish the rest of the patches to unittest and get them landed.
