No, the idea is to have a simple, small icon on the toolbar, which displays a 
status. The widget does have a list of errors and warnings sent to it by 
khtml. These are displayed when clicked. This is a very non-obtrusive way of 
giving information about a web-page. Also as I've explained before, I think 
the implementation of the error messages should be a gradual process, 
somewhat like adding debug messages. The messages needn't be a complete 
parser, but could simply give information about where konqueror meets 
troubles in a page. This will allow web-developer to quickly see why a page 
does not render well in konqueror. In this way web-developers can adust pages 
quickly to konqueror and the html standards.

Best regards,
Jos
