When validating the content of an XSL or XML document,
it would be useful if the error information would
appear with the dialog box. Currently, a dialog box
pops up telling you that it couldn't validate the
document, and asking you to open the error message
window. It's not immediately obvious how to do show
the error message window. When the user DOES track
down the menu item for the window, the window's default
size is too small, and is difficult to resize.

It would be better if the validation results dialog
actually asked you if you wanted to see the error
message, and if so, you could show the detailed error
message.

It would also be useful, if the error message window
allowed you to select the text. This would allow the
user to do a google search on the text, if they didn't
know how to solve the problem.

    Make the text box on the error window editable - so
    hopefully what ever OS you are using allows you to highlight
    text now (worked fine on my Linux box - but I can see how
    that would suck)
    Thanks yet again phidias
