Thanks @sir-sigurd, I think a NEWs entry would be interesting, don't you?

Line is longer than 79 characters, ref. PEP 7.

This needs to be rebased onto master in order to fit in with the changes in the test suite.

@erlend-aasland
I'll try to rebase in the near future, though I almost do not remember anything about this.

Could you rebase again (bco. GH-27884), @sir-sigurd? :)

Also, please clean up the regression test:

• line length is limited to 79 chars
• please use double quotes
