Pre- and post S3/S4 functions

Hi,
I am wondering there is a need to implement a feature to provide a hook
for executing a script (or just an application) before and after S3 and
S4 stress tests.
The function may be handy at various some scenario. For example, we can
play a video or a song if it is suspected a system has such as bug; or
we can write a value to hardware register to check whether that will fix
a specific problems.
Some concerns may be related to this topic:
1. The may extend fwts to be more than a firmware test suite (like a
generic test suite) and that may or may not be desirable.
2. security issue: if we allow any script to be executed, this may
create a security hole.
3. alternative solution: instead of running a script by fwts, can we
simply use script to run fwts and do the pre/post functions?
Any comments?
Cheers,
Alex Hung
