Is a full new shell needed for this specific instance, or would a
subshell suffice?

Maybe it's possible to add a flag (like the xfail flag) to the test
definition to say "put this in it's own shell"?  That would make it
easier than having to explicitly reference $ZTST_testdir etc. (There
are a few exceptions that would still require that reference, I
think.)
