When executing a remote job, in the console, it would be very beneficial to add an hyperlink that the user could follow to the actual remote job, like:
[...]
Blocking local job until remote job completes
Remote build <a href="https://www.jenkins-ci.org/job/infra_svnsync/21243/">TheRemoteJobLink</a> started!
[...]
Ideally, that information would also be available in the job result page. Probably using an UI very similar to the current "Downstream Projects", but instead saying "Remote Projects executed:". See the screenshot.

Outputting to the log the URL of the remote server may not be desirable for publicly accessible Jenkins servers due to security concerns.
Once typically does not want to over-expose "internal workings" of your job to the public.
As for adding a new UI bit similar to "downstream projects"... that sounds interesting. I have no clue how to implement that at the moment, but I'll leave this feature request open.
