  I'm trying to integrate Mercurial with a new test format I'm developing called LITF (https://github.com/Lothiraldan/litf). The LITF test format is stream-based while the json report, while having the needed information, only dumps a file at the end. Moreover, the format is not final yet, I would like to avoid generating unnecessary noise on the phabricator / mailing-list.
