I'm wondering whether these tests ought to be enabled only if some DEFINE is defined ("PEDANTIC" / "WARNINGS" etc.). I know they should pass, but if that hasn't been exercised previously, that can cause some additional thrash. I don't want to lower the bar and remove those tests, but if there was some grace period, that might help teams who are trying to certify in the near term. I'm not sure what others think. Asking my firmware teams whether fixing that in pending devices' certifications will cause thrash.

OK, so the "job-template" returns basically nothing other than "attributes-charset" and "attributes-natural-language", which seems too few. 😞 It seems the firmware is equating 'job-template' with 'none' and 'printer-description' with 'all'.
