It's possible to get reload failure notification emails via the log4net SMTP appender. 

That's useful, even better would be if the subject line could also be customised. Looks like it's not a huge code change (but still a change, of course), example here.

Having this it would be possible to have alert emails with subjects such as "Reload task named '<reload task name>' has failed". Would be useful.

There's talk about the general publishing, alerting etc experience in the QMC will get a facelift too, but awaiting that the above could maybe be a quick & easy fix?

That would be very helpful

or build a e-mail notification in the QMC, that would be better.

Since writing the original post I badly needed the ability to send alert emails when tasks failed or were manually aborted, so I added this feature to the open source Butler tool. 

Details here. 

Sample email sent when a reload task fails:
