Comment (by boonebgorges):
MikeHansenMe - Thanks for your continued work on this. I'm looking through
these tests, and it looks like many of them are actually passing when
forced to run. We don't need to remove passing tests from the suite - just
those that fail because they demonstrate an unfixed bug. Sorry if that
wasn't clear from the discussion above. (This, by the way, points to
another problem with the "skipping" behavior: it causes tests to be
skipped when they're good, passing tests, just because they're attached to
a ticket that happens to be open for some reason.) So, a good technique
for collecting these might be to set `WP_FORCE_KNOWN_BUGS` to true, and
then start removing the tests that fail.
