        <pre>I'd like to start adding regression tests for the builtins generator now that we are starting to use it in more complex ways.
However, the existing generators are difficult to test because they directly write to files instead of producing per-output file strings.

To make the situation better, I'm proposing to restructure the existing generator code, similar to the rewrite of the Inspector Protocol Generator last year.

This should not take very long, since the generators are fairly small. I will put a patch up later today or tomorrow and see what folks think about the approach.
FWIW, the inspector generator (which the restructure would be patterned upon) is very easy to maintain, and its tests have caught many codegen errors and regressions in the past year.</pre>
