I would love it if make check worked. make installcheck adds extra
effort to extension develoopment, not to mention leaving your actual
install in a less than pristine state.
Possibly related to this... I'd also like to have other options for
running unit tests, besides pg_regress. I looked at it briefly and the
big PITA about doing it was having to manage the temporary database (and
ideally temporary cluster). If standing those up was separated from
pg_regress it would make it a lot easier for someone to customize how
testing works under PGXS.
