Yes, good idea.
That would make it easier to run just those test.

However, hard-coding the list of expensive and very-expensive
tests would require doing the same sort of thing as is done
for root_tests (see check-root) in tests/Makefile.am,
where there'd be a hand-maintained list of expensive and very-expensive
tests (in tests/Makefile.am) as well as rules to run them and rules
to cross-check that the lists are complete, as is done in cfg.mk's
sc-root_tests rule.

Wouldn't it be sufficient to add something like the following
to the top-level Makefile.am?

check-expensive:
        env RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes make check

check-very-expensive:
        env RUN_VERY_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes make check
