 * Support for creating a `ModuleSelector` from a `java.lang.Module` and using
   its classloader for test discovery.
+* Allow implementations of `HierarchicalTestEngine` to specify which nodes require the
+  global read lock by overriding the `Node.isGlobalReadLockRequired()` method to return
+  `false`.
