If my latest matrix build was successful, during my next execution, the overall project status is the same as the latest build status until the entire build is done.
I was checking the sources and noted the "problem" is the hudson.matrix.DefaultMatrixExecutionStrategyImpl.waitForCompletion(MatrixBuildExecution, MatrixConfiguration) method that blocks until the configuration is done, inside a loop over all configurations.
Maybe if this method do a "checkForCompletion" and update the build status for every configurations that finishes (I know it's not a trivial solution), we could have a fail-fast solution for matrix projects.
How about aborting other child builds when a child build fails?
