Standardized testing has been discusses numerous times but goes nowhere. Consistent and repeatable testing would have to be done by a reputable third party. Once such a company and procedure exists, coming up with an arbitrary standard will be all but impossible to satisfy everyone. A plane guy has different requirements than a heli guy or a car guy, and each group can be further divided by how the packs are used (racer vs basher vs top speed).

Personally, I would be happy with a simple graph showing voltage vs amperage vs temperature vs usable capacity. That's it. Let the consumer decide if the graph results are adequate for their needs/usage without having to come up with an arbitrary X volts/cell @ Y current @ Z temperature standard, which will likely change as the technology advances, and makes comparing apples to apples more difficult.
