I just tried to figure out why _test-eliminator_ does not work. It took me quite a while to find that the problem actually was that it didn't find _node_ in my environment. That is because in the test ```stderr``` is just ignored and muted. I have now seen this in quite a few python files (so it seems symptomatic) and I vote very strongly for abandoning that practise since it makes finding errors in the script a real problem.
I cannot think of any reason why the user should not see when and what is going wrong.
