Do you think it's really useful? I agree about running by name (I
usually used grep -v in the Makefile :-), but I'm not sure about running
by number.

Or is the idea is that you can just copy-paste this number from the
test_progs output to rerun the tests? In this case, why not copy-paste
the name instead?
