For example, the downstream Chromium canaries just list the names of
the first couple tests (without paths):

[[
frame-programmatic-noresize.html
]]

Even just the first dozen characters of the name would be helpful to
see at-a-glance whether it's the same test failing on multiple bots.

Cool.  Looks like Ossy is going to write a patch.
