Comment:

 I'm not totally convinced this is worthwhile -- right now, the tests
 verify that the steps correctly interact with the !RemoteCommand
 interface.  If we are also testing the !RemoteCommand interface at the
 same time, then the tests are no longer unit tests.

 We should definitely test the !RemoteCommand implementation against a fake
 slave - we do a little bit of that now, but it can be much more thorough
 with a pluggable backend.
