Following up on request from flutter/flutter#154481
IMO, hacky tests should generally be avoided. :)
Does this scenario need to be documented then? It feels like a blank check that anyone could say, well let's just skip testing for leaks since this test is a hack. That feels like a test that is not very valuable.

Yes, we want to avoid hacky tests as much as possible.
But, some tests have to be hacky.
So I suggest the rule like "To opt out a test, prove carefully that the test is hacky".
But, yes, we can skip documenting this to reduce tendency to opt out tests.
