Yes, for example, all of our Functional Tests require the -Component
package, even if what they're testing might otherwise not. That said,
if we can have all or most of the JQuery functional tests working
without Flow (we did the same to the Functional tests by using
#show:onAnswer: instead of #call:) that would definitely be A Good
Thing.
