Okay.  After sleeping on it and seeing how this thread evolves, it
looks that we have more arguments in favor of just let dry-run go to
the void.  So attached is an updated patch set:
- 0001 removes the dry-run mode from isolationtester.
- 0002 cleans up the specs of unused steps and adds the discussed
sanity checks, as proposed for this thread.
