As a counterargument, I'll point out that this won't be as critical
as zic, especially if we're talking about an additional/optional
set of tests. Also, Tim Bunce and I are right here, so the maintenance
should not be that bad (and I'd hazard that a lot more people in
the community know Perl/DBI than zic or stemmers).
