Maybe.  That affects formatters, though...formatters that have known what to look for for pending would now have to be updated to look for something else.  Maybe that's OK (although, if we go in that direction, it seems like we should go all the way and have both `example_pending` and `example_skipped` notifications...).  However, I don't see a skipped vs pending distinction as being useful for a formatter (at least, I can't think of how it would be useful) and making that distinction adds up to a lot of work for formatter maintainers.  If we're not going to make that distinction (and I'm currently leaning against doing so) then I don't think we should have a `skipped_message`; instead we should just treat `pending` vs `skipped` as an API/metadata concept and not as an example result/formatter concept.

What do others think about this?
