(Whiteboard: [mozmill-2.0+])

It seems that there is currently no way to disable a test given by a condition, i.e. only if the test gets run on Windows. That's something important for us, so we don't have to disable the test completely but can limit it only to affected platforms.

Before we were able to handle that in the test itself. Now with Manifests the test doesn't get even executed anymore.

Absolutely we want this for 2.0, and the changes to the manifest parser are already going in.

See http://hg.mozilla.org/automation/ManifestDestiny/rev/e0068279aac8 ; You can filter active_tests by e.g. `os = win` or `os.ignore = linux`; arbitrary tags can be specified.  This isn't hooked up in mozmill yet, but...it should be :)

We'll need mozinfo to do this properly

I don't think we need this for hotfix-1.5

This is already done in the manifest parser.
