currently kitchen ignores recipe result. Buildbucket does not receive it. In particular, it does not distinguish between failures and infra failures.
Propagate recipe result from recipe engine through kitchen to buildbucket.

"""
It would be much more efficient to have a user readable description of build failure reasons that is somehow generated by cbuildbot (and/or the recipe) included in buildbucket results where feasible.
This would allow UI to display more information with only a buildbucket query, instead of making additional Milo.BuildInfo calls per build.
Is there a reasonable approach for doing this?

This is implemented, but deployment was reverted because of bug 730196. Unless swarming grows a new API to upload task results, we cannot deploy this feature until bug 730196 is fixed.
