Hi Martin,
This sounds like a good idea to me in principle: the Stylesheets tests
should be meant to test changes to the Stylesheets and not be affected by
changes to the source.
However, what do we do when we need to make sure that the Stylesheets are
still behaving correctly after a major change to the source? In that case
the Stylesheets tests are likely to fail because of changes in the source
even if they are indeed behaving correctly.

Hi all,
I think there's a possible partial solution to the chaos resulting from the fact that Stylesheets tests depend on p5subset.xml, so whenever the Specs change, the expected-results in the Stylesheets tests may also change.
This is because we always try to use the same p5subset for every test: the current release. But if we make each test point at a specific version of p5subset.xml in the Vault, then that version will never change; so the Stylesheets output should also never change, unless we change the Stylesheets themselves, in which case we want to see what changes in the expected-results anyway.
Anyone see any problem with this?
