Some time ago, the only possibility for testing was post-processing.
Recently, things have changed.  Now there's a (still rather limited)
possibility for pre-processing, PROVIDED that your checks can detect
important issues and PROVIDED your code does not take too much time.

That is to say, there's a real shift.  Something can be a pre-condition,
not a post-condition as it used to be.

Here is a clue: think of how you can integrate certain parts of your
code directly into girar-builder.  This is not impossible.
