For the completeness issue the only thing to do is for people to write
more tests.  Feel free to contribute!

For JVM tests, we could easily add a new directory for these.  We
could even add an entirely new test harness just for JVM tests, if
that is necessary.  We aren't overly constrained by the current way of
doing things.  Contributions welcome...
