 Applied.
 
 Actually, one much-needed improvement for nstool in the current test
 framework (at least for my usage) would be to make it terminate when
 needed.
 
 A while ago, 'killall -9 nstool' entered my shell history and now it's
 right there with 'git rebase --continue':
 
 $ sort ~/.bash_history | uniq -c | sort -nr | grep -A1 'killall -9 nstool'
     192 killall -9 nstool
     192 git rebase --continue 
Yeah, I have something similar.  But, I don't currently know what
exactly the circumstances are that lead to those stale nstools, so it
would involve a fair bit of debugging.
