Being difficult to work with goes both ways. You as a maintainer are entitled to say "I won't accept this without test cases", and I as a contributor am entitled to say "I'm not going to do that". Since I'm doing this on my free time I'd rather work on the things I like, which doesn't include writing test cases from scratch, primarily because I'm not familiar with them.
