There's a bit of infrastructure work to make it a reality - all of the CLI parsing/validity checks assumes tests are numbered and match a sepcific regex, as do some of the test list building functions. That all needs to be reworked, and up until now it hasn't been a huge priority for me so I haven't started that work yet. You're more than welcome to hack on it if you want....
