Rendering not wellformed pages is acceptable, but making users aware of 
non-wellformedness and invalid html would be nice.
This is why iCab (Das Internet-Taxi für den Mac) is so wonderful. Maybe konqi 
could have something like that. Just put a enum in the renderer en let it 
have different states for different problems with values like not-wellformed, 
warnings, valid. Konqi could then visualise these values with icons on e.g. 
the statusbar.

non-wellformdnes :-(
warnings :-|
valid xml/xhtml/html :-)

you can find icab at www.icab.de

best regards, Jos
