Many web projects have a "system messages" area to report cron failures and
things like that. These messages are often dismissable. I think it would be
great to have a "system messages" table that we could insert things into to
make staff aware that something has failed.

What I'm imagining is something like wrapping cronjob code in a try/catch and
reporting cronjob failures. This would dovetail with action logs. Action logs
lot you got searching for issues. This would put the issue right in front of
you and would be trigger by actual failures. It could be used to report records
with malformed MARC. It could be used to report items that are missing a
required field that Koha assumes exists to function, and so on.
