Testsuite policy - test case now passes but bug remains

Certainly. In the end, it is up to the maintainers what goes into the
testsuite and what doesn't. I'd like to avoid situations where bug
reporters push maintainers to record a test case in the testsuite,
just because they think it will then get fixed earlier. This strategy
does not normally work - people should accept the strategies explained
in the FAQ to get bugs fixed.

I still have no clear picture what the policy actually is, so I'd
prefer not to write anything definitive about it.
