 * Add back in the "big warning" from regression.sh?
 
-* Add info to the README about how to run the python tests
+* Find a faster way to zero the disc than using sgdisk and
+  dd. Running both of these on a 10G disc can take minutes.
 
-* Leave the regression test around, for now? It doesn't run,
-  so maybe it should just be removed?
+* Come up with some common subsets of tests that can be run
+  when needed, since running all the tests takes forever. Maybe
+  a "short", "medium", and "long" option, so the caller doesn't
+  have to remember the arcane command-line options?
 
-* Add in option to specify which subtests (of 16) are run
-  for each test case. Would make it much faster for testing
-  and go/no-go testing?
+* keep track of our session id (when we have one), so that
