Thank you for your feedback and the suggestions 
I think the context of the report differs from the information that the gitlab-ci-dashboard would provide. If it’s a case of displaying certain relevant and important information on a one-page dashboard, that can be achieved with a new custom template.
It’s just a case of deciding what’s useful to have on that page, the Collection and run details are available to you.
Things like adding different charts (bar, pie, doughnut, etc.) are simple enough but it’s just a case of styling and getting the layout right, as you can see, just dumping something at the bottom of a page looks a bit nasty 
I’m not too sure what you mean on your 3rd point, would you be able to explain this more or maybe provide an example?
