   @janl Had this dance with @rnewson recently who tried to special case a setting in the .ini file. He was able to work around it using `./rel/files/eunit.ini` for eunit, and modifying `dev/run` for the latter.
   
   We already have a command line way to pass a static `admin:password` to `dev/run` so perhaps just pass that in and bake `admin:password` as the auth into the tests? I bet we can do it in one place for each of Elixir and JS, except maybe for any admin level tests.
   
   Personally I'd rather not have an escape hatch on this one, otherwise people will find it and abuse it, just as they did when we rushed 2.0 out the door and left 5986 open.
