## Description of the feature request

I would be able to store a simple message/description of the problem when a build failed.

## Use case / for what or how I would use it

When a build failed, a custom field would appear in the build panel to describe the solution/problem encountered during the build. This field would be a “reminder” or a “help” for other people working on the project.

Hi @chargemap, thanks for the #feature-request!

Just to clarify, would you like a place where you can add this text to the build **post** -failure?
