What if there were a plugin that allowed the classification of test
failures, and then allowed filtering and reviewing history of test failures
by type of failure, frequency of failure, etc.?  That might then support
the human driven failure analysis with gathered data.

I know we can claim a build break and a test failure, but I don't know of a
way to assign a "reason" for a test break to a specific test failure.
