Yes, sorry. I had something like a non-existing EXPECT_ASSERT in mind. 
QEXPECT_FAIL has the same semantics as the proposed KKNOWN_BROKEN_TEST, so all 
one would have to do in Martin's case would be;
* contact the maintainer
* if the maintainer doesn't answer, mark as broken using QEXPECT_FAIL so the 
next dev doesn't run into the same problem

If the maintainer just was too slow to respond, no harm is done as he can 
simply fix the test and remove the QEXPECT_FAIL.
