> Actually, in a thread a couple weeks back I suggested that we change NRWT to match ORWT across the board (and stop running platform/* for Chromium), and nobody disagreed.

I think that's better.  I don't like Chromium port doing different thing from other ports.  It just complicates things, confuse contributors from other ports, and adds maintenance cost.

> I have no problem matching ORWT here, although I was never aware of this particular behavior and it's a little surprising to me (I would think you would have to specify both directories if you wanted both directories). I don't feel particularly strongly about it one way or another.

It's really useful when you're writing some patch and want to sanity-test your patch against some subsets of tests (e.g. editing) since there's no easy way to tell which directory has platform-specific tests other than manually looking at the directories.
