I will have to disagree here. The log is the log and the test results
are the test results. IMO they are two separate things.
TestResults.xml is pretty much a summary of the test run.

I would focus on a previous conversation which indicated that for this
"real-time" logging we need some sort of different mechanism of output
where interested parties could look at. You wouldn't need to look at
it all the time, (I mean a mysterious test failing out of the sudden
is not a usual behavior I would hope)

Just my opinion ...
