lifeless: testtools.clone_test_with_new_id can be used to assign a unique id. create the test (duplicative id); then clone it to a new id, and add the resulting new-id test into the suite, let the original get gc'd.
bac: are you suggesting doing that in filter_tests or in the various test_doc files?
lifeless: I was assuming local-to-the-duplicativeness with a sanity-check in the global test_suite() constructor to enforce uniqueness
