Given that we have a centralized repository with the CI scripts that 
most libraries use this is actually possible.

I imagine it is easy enough to `tee` the b2-test output to a file, run 
some (Python?) script over it and append an overview of the status for 
each test to the end of the output.
I guess having at least a list of failed tests in an easy-to-read text 
format improves the output.
Unfortunately we can't (easily) generate HTML pages with tables etc. 
like the test matrix. But the above could at least improve the situation.

Or maybe B2 could give this (already?). At least the CMake test output 
is easier to read having a list of tests, their status and on failure 
their output.
