Eh, it's OK, just seems slightly inconsistent to be specifying
environment 'horizontally' for some tests and 'vertically' for others.
Why not just another table with the two tests that use the GUI/text
distinction and those as the columns?

With a very neat-freak hat on, I'd probably have put the table with just
one column either at the top or bottom, not in the middle - just flows a
bit odd visually for me. But that's very small beans.

(I am pleased to note that relval testcase-stats seems to handle the
changes well :>)
