We could use two sets of reports. However, we don't need to.
If we'd display everything in a single report then we'd just
have to replace the runner-id by runner-id+setname in order
to display both sets in a single report (or replace the toolset-id
by toolset-id+setname).
However, I guess it makes more sense to separate them. The
existing report already consists of many columns; doubling
their number wouldn't exactly increase readability.
Btw, another idea would be to use the commit-procedure to
mark differences between the old final set and the new final
set. We would then be able to spot new problems quickly.
(of course, that information would live for only for a
short time; I think it could be valuable, though)
