One catch is that the run command assumes a successful exit is "good",

  git bisect run make test

good for finding regressions, but is a little counterintuitive for the
yes/no thing (a successful exit means "no").

Then you would require a script that inverts the result, no? From my
point of view it's either that or add an option telling bisect run how
to interpret the results. In the latter case you could still consider
adding the regression/improvement qualification to bisect start. It might
help getting the mind set right.
