Hi Tonći! Thanks for your comment. I know that this is possible and I've even implemented a formatter that spits out JUnit xml report.
That is an alternative for sure and one I'd probably use until this is built-in. I still think that the current formatter could be better though for the reasons I've mentioned before. Having a new formatter which only adds this funcionality but is a copy and paste of the rest of the source seems not really good but I'll probably go on with this suggestion if this is not accepted.
