We have started to think/chat about this, there was another patch on the 
list recently that Mark Hatle and I talked about tests.

I think having the tests enabled with DISTRO_FEATURE would allow for the 
flexibility of enabling then without always incurring the cost /overhead 
of longer compile times.

Can you incorporate the changes to the core recipe with out having to 
add a new dbus-tests recipe if you use DISTRO_FEATURE?

Same here, disucssion started.I would like to see tests go into 
${datadir}/${BPN} (/usr/share/${BPN}.  /opt was discussed, but I think 
we want to leave that clean and empty.
