Show somehow that the problem is being investigated

[amoerie]

When a build error exists, TeamCity allows assigning a user to investigate the problem.
That should be visible somehow.

No it shouldn't. Not enough screen estate.

Personally, I'd make this a configurable setting, off by default. Some people may have screen estate, or configure the styling to make space for such information?

Or, thinking about it, it could be as simple as the tile being a different colour. The main thing is to show someone is investigating, not necessarily WHO is investigating.

I'm hesitant about colors. Maybe an "eye" icon on the tile would be feasible. But in any case, it's not top of the priority list right now, we don't use the investigation feature at all.

If there's a real demand, I guess new issues will come. :-) I'm open to a PR for this though, if it's not too intrusive.

We use investigations in the form of the Investigations Auto-Assigner Plugin, and would really like to see this feature.

An "eye" icon is a good idea, with a mouseover text showing who is investigating the build. A complication is that an investigator can be assigned to either the whole build or individual failed tests.
Would be very nice if that info could be displayed as well.

According to the latest TeamCity API documentation (found here: https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/TCD18/REST+API#RESTAPI-Investigations), it looks like this information would need to be fetched separately, continuously like the builds.

This makes me a bit hesitant to include this, as we're already spamming the TeamCity API enough as it is.
