Subject: want to extend JUnitTestRunner to allow specification of JUnit

I'd like to extend JUnitTestRunner to allow specification of JUnit Filters.
 This would allow, for example, tests to be filtered by Category.

It looks like all I would need to do is to create a Description from the
test class (or test class and method name) and annotations then pass it
through a series of user-specified Filters.  What objections might there be
by adding such a feature?  Are there any gotchas with the approach I
described?

Thanks,
Noel
