I suspect there are cases like that, but I think the vast majority of
tests that I've encountered do require running the software and having
RUN_DEPENDS, so I'd rather optimize for the more common case.

Isn't the reason for that related to packages? That is, a more practical
concern, rather than simply for the sake of being explicit? I'd rather
make it easier to use TEST_DEPENDS so that it gets adopted more easily.
