That setup is not going to test if everything keep working on a multi-site setup or with some prefixed tables.
SimpleTest uses prefixed tables, so that point is moot. The number of patches which are likely to affect multisite installs are very, very little, maybe 1/1000.
I'd consider interesting to include in the test some popular modules... or include some modules that just "test" a set of core API.
Again, SimpleTest - have you actually downloaded Drupal 7 and tried it out? As to popular modules, when you find a 7.x version of Views and CCK, please let me know. If you fancy porting some modules to 7.x early and often to help test new APIs I'm sure maintainers of those modules will welcome patches.
