In the time of KDevelop 3 there were options to filter build output and my 
favorite one was to suppress commands and show only which file is compiled + 
errors and warnings. Here is a screenshout I found:

In KDevelop 4 I missed this feature a lot in the beggining of migretion. So I 
voting for integration with build output view in such way.
