Here's what I added to sqlobject.conftest that seems to work:

class SQLObjectClass(py.test.collect.Class):
     def run(self):
         if (isinstance(self.obj, type)
             and issubclass(self.obj, sqlobject.SQLObject)):
             return []
         return super(SQLObjectClass, self).run()

# I assume this name magically overrides the normal class collector:
Class = SQLObjectClass

I also clearly have to figure out py.documentation.conftest, as that 
seems to have doctest and ReST hooks that I'll want to use.
