I don’t see “unexpectedly successful TODO tests should be treated
like other failures” as particularly application-specific.

I definitely want to be notified automatically of passing TODO
tests, and apparently at least three others care enough to post
about it on this list. Conversely, I’m pretty sure that of those
who don’t *want* it, most simply don’t care, and if this were a
default, very few would actually want to turn this behaviour off.

All things considered, this seems like a prime candidate for
default behaviour. That’s why I don’t think punting to let-
everyone-roll-their-own is a long-term solution for this one.
