  Question... I don't use the XML feature, but would it be better to have
all the tests listed under each variation, or would it be better to
have for each test, the results of each variation ? I don't believe very
many people are using this new feature, so I think it might be better to
work out the best solution, and not feel constrained by the existing output.
The XML output is still very much a work in progress.
