 My only misgiving is that some tests that require MS are closely related
 to another component (say, Activity), and moving them away from the
 existing activity tests makes them a bit harder to find. This is an
 unavoidable problem - there will always be more than one place where a
 test might be appropriate - but we should try to be consistent about our
 treatment. Multisite is just one of the possible "toggles" in a WP/BP
 environment - think of all of our component settings, for example. We
 shouldn't be overly influenced by the fact that WP (and we, by example)
 have a separate phpunit.dist file for multisite.
