We're considering something for JUnit 4.x that may be similar to the
SkipException, although it's based on failed assumptions. In early
returns, I'm seeing that I might want a quick summary of the
assumption that failed, with a more detailed description also
available. However, this is still experimental.
That said, I am neither producer nor consumer of the XML syntax, so my
only interest is in whether anything we're currently doing makes the
XML generation harder than it feels like it needs to be (on which
point, the earlier discussion about Ignore reasons is appreciated).
