"pass" is a no-op, and should only be used when a suite is required,
but the suite should do nothing.  you're proposing a convention saying

   ''if "pass" appears in a suite which also contains other
     expressions, the "pass" signals the end of the suite''

that's a hack, and IMHO not worthy of a Python program.  not even Perl
has anything like that, AFAIK.
