Hi Scott,

Getcha. However, this doesn't seem like a common case and weakening
the general case & making it a little more magic doesn't seem the best
approach IMHO. Indeed, it's almost a feature of the current test that
it is so "dumb" and thus easily understandable and explainable.
This case seems like a perfect case for an override, especially as that
provides a perfect place to explain the names of the package.
Naturally if we find many more examples we can revisit, but I don't think
we should change this right now. :)
Best wishes,
