Depends on whether you want tracker admin access (i.e.
become a SF python project member). If you do,
you could attach patches to bug reports not
written by you.

Probably not. Alternatively, introduce a "root" resource,
and make that test depend on the presence of the root resource.

You could make it a subsection (e.g. "spwd -- shadow passwords")
Not sure whether this would be supported by the processing
tools; if not, inserting the module in the middle might be
acceptable.

In any case, what is important is that the documentation is
added - it can always be rearranged later.
