Another quick thought on an improvement to the regression test results: it'd be nice to see the history of whether tests were previously passing or failing for a given revision i.e. if a test is currently failing what was the last revision number that it successfully ran at? Likewise being able to see a particular tests history can make bug finding easier; if a test result over time is fail pass fail, knowing what change caused the test to go green can help understand the nature of a bug.
There's a effort going on right now to make over the whole regression testing system. The sort of thing you suggest above is one of the high-priority goals. --Beman
