Note that the need for the overhead of the test wrapper classes has gone 
away, which makes it easier to have a test per feature/bug.

I'm OK with multiple test cases within a test (it's a style issue that 
can go either way) but I would note that these days we are focussing on 
verifying that the tests for a feature do at least minimally execute the 
new or modified code for the feature.  You can do this with the jcov 
support for checking the coverage of the new or modified code in a 
patch, and you can easily access this functionality from recent releases 
of jtreg.
