How about having 'fink validate' by default always display all
warnings (regardless of user's verbosity setting), and add a
--no-pedantic flag for validate to hide the pedantic/formatting
messages? That way packagers don't accidentally not catch mistakes but
those who want to see major/functional mistakes can easily separate
the wheat from the chaff.
