Additional patches are attached.

For my use case I only "need" patches 1 and 2 (and some of the
previous patches).

Patch 3 is convenient but the implementation could be considered ugly
and it could be replaced with a script that copies an existing test and
updates the test number on the fly.

Instead of patch 2, httpserver.pl's and sws's "--srcdir" arguments
could be renamed "--testdir". This would be a more intrusive change,
but it would make the purpose of the argument more obvious (unless I miss
something, srcdir is only used to derive the testdir) and wouldn't require
the testdir to be named "data".
