I agree, but at the same time writing a patch shows both the bug-reporter
and hackers_AT_ more clear what the proposed patched behaviour would be.
For trivial patches it is better.

I think this is still not clear: what if a file is hidden due to its path?
for example: $HOME/.config/somefile
should it be visible or not?
the stest man page uses the term "file" but "path" is meant.
for example:
-d Test that files are directories.
I think the -a option looks out of place to be honest. Should it be removed
or at the very least better documented?
