Quite exatly what i meant in the parallel post :-).

I'm not shure weather tx_caretaker_lasttestresult is the best way since
i'm still thinking about how we could store the test plain data in a
more convenient way for the developers. What we have now is more or less
intended to add some data to the result messages and will stay so you
can use it.

I hope we will hear about your results. It's always interesting to see
what others are doing with our toy.
