Good idea.
I think it's better to use exactly the same format as used in the
function `compilation-handle-exit', i.e. `mode-name' instead of
`(capitalize name-of-mode)', and `(substring (current-time-string) 0 19)'
instead of `format-time-string'.
Also I see there is a difference in highlighting grep and compilation
exit messages. In the grep output the mode name `Grep' is
not highlighted, but the exit code is highlighted (highlighting
is underlined below).
Grep exited abnormally with code 2 at Tue Jul 19 15:42:32
================= =
In the compilation output the mode name is highlighted,
but the exit code is not:
Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Wed Jul 20 12:21:12
=============================
Shouldn't they be more uniform?
