It should be possible to specify custom filters for the build output so that matching messages would appear at the toplevel results page (viewLog.html?tab=buildResultsDiv).

Here is the thinking. Our overall build output is huge, though, and only very little of it is importance. It is not possible to define the important messages as simply as the ant level (info/warn/error). And while it is nice to be able to dig down when needed and nice to only show the "Important" messages as opposed to All, it would be great to be able to see a given set of messages, as defined by the end user, at the top level and then be able to view the build log, either in its entirety or just the Important messages. And the ability to define more directly what these Important messages are would be nice.

We run quite a few different tasks during our CI builds, including things such as checkstyle, pmd and macker. We want to be able to view failures from this as easily as possible.

Sorry if I'm not being too clear here. I guess what I'm looking for is a way of customizing the views of the build log at the different levels. Something like RE defined for toplevel messages and Important messages.

Let me know if you need more details or clarifications.
