A question about direction.

Since both the Dart client code and CTest run tests and submit the 
results to a Dart server,
is there any good reason to support both on the client side?

I have a situation where the URL formation for triggers would not do 
what I needed.
In particular, the code assumes that there will be only one parameter 
to the cgi routine on the receiver and that parameter will be the 
mangled file name.  In my case, I need to pass additional parameters. 
Therefore splicing the file name on the end with a "?" produces an 
incorrect URL because it now contains two "?". The correct connector is 
the character "&" for the second and subsequent parameters. (I had 
submitted this code to the dart list, but it was ignored)

My question is: Do I need to ALSO fix ctest? If so, why are both being 
supported? IMHO, one should just be phased out.
Also, is it a waste of my time to try to submit these kinds of changes? 
I get the feeling that "not invented here" may be the rule.
