Comment:

 Design looks reasonable.

 We should update the file-level comment of practracker.py to mention that
 we are now checking for include dependecies too. Same goes for the header
 of exceptions.txt .

 And maybe it's time to make a small README file to specify all the metrics
 that practracker is currently looking for, before they become too many?

 Also, I wonder if we should be requiring unittests for practracker
 features.
