Well it's already one of the TODOs :-)

Yes. And the wiki mentions that it needs to be hacked for this.

You mean the [result="note"] that is available in run tests? Some 
immediate thoughts...

I don't think that would work for non-run tests, as the [result="note"] 
is only available for run tests.

I also don't see those notes currently showing up in the regression 
result pages. So at least the XSLT processing would need to change.

And if the result page building needs to change we might as well add a 
[result="warn"] to all the tests.
