And if I misunderstood you and what you meant is that we should add the ability for old-run-webkit-tests to read the test_expectations.txt files, maybe adding that ability is part of getting Mac ready to move over to test_expectations.txt.

Would much rather see NRWT Windows support and cascading test_expectations.txt files :)
