This is already done....

An example can be found here in the Trilinos dashboard:

http://trilinos-dev.sandia.gov/cdash/index.php [^]

Trilinos is one big project with lots of sub-projects. The sub-projects
can be described either in the CDash GUI, or in an XML file that can be
uploaded to CDash.

It has just been finished and there is not good documentation yet, but I
will try to get some up soon.
