Bug Description

The status of the listed bug is not shown for contributing failures. This means it's not easy to tell when an associated bug has been marked invalid, fixed released, etc.

In addition, the bug may or may not represent the actual issue encountered.

It would be useful to instead display the bug title, and status.

The bug title is typically way too long to fit in the space available. Even issue titles have been creeping up in length.

I'm not sure that the bug status is particularly useful. If we see a failure, but the bug is marked fix released, that can mean
1. The bug is fixed, but the results aren't up-to-date enough to show it
2. The bug was incorrectly marked fixed
3. The bug is fixed, but the fix is in a different branch.

I think you need to show all the bug targets, and you need to see the date each status was set. Again, I am doubtful that this will fit cleanly in the contributing failures box. It certainly won't if we're sticking the bug title in there, too.

I agree the bug title can be insane, and maybe too much. It would be useful to know the status and as you say perhaps a last updated date on the bug. Obviously we should be clicking through and checking, but flagging things like this would be helpful. Speaking of flagging, does it make sense to do some UI changes in the event we have a bug fix committed or fix released that shows on the list?
