As a user of cabal-install it is not always obvious which commands depend on other commands. Also, I would imagine some users like the current behavior of cabal test, and perhaps ideally cabal could read my mind and magically behave in the way I prefer. So, if it turns out this is a controversial change, perhaps we could get an option in the cabal config to toggle this behavior?
