Right now, when reftests are run, we report the pixel differences for tests marked fuzzy, and for tests that result in UNEXPECTED-FAIL. I think we should just always report it. In particular, it's useful to see if tests marked as fails[-if] are actually very close to passing (e.g. they have a 1-pixel difference). In such cases the harness will treat the test as TEST-KNOWN-FAIL which is fine but if the difference is small the test could just as well be annotated as fuzzy-if and be made passing.
