I'm not aware of any code which would do the full visit. We have some code in dosep.py (`find_test_files_in_dir_tree`), but this one only does file traversal. It does not look inside the the files for classes, test methods and such.

The real visiting happens inside unittest2 (loader.py). The code there seems very complicated, but I think that's because it tries to support various things we don't use, so /I hope/ that our visiting logic can be simpler.

OTOH, looking at loader.py, it seems to me it may actually be possible to let it do the enumeration for us, if we stroke it the right way.
