Okay, so I'll dump the SQL dump idea. :)

I'll make sure I add instructions to add "Test Author" as User ID 2, which
should facilitate the data import, and preserve the bypostauthor comment

I'll tidy up the image tests, and put them all in one post (as I did with the
layout tests). So, we'll have "Layout Test", "Images Test", and "Readability
Test".

I've added a "Readability Test" (paying homage to James Barrie):
