Perfect!  And I also see "with errata" links on the Datatracker pages too.  
Strange that I've never noticed them before...did they get added recently?

Right, this is what I'm familiar with, but it's always a slog to parse through 
the Errata.  What's new (to me) is that the very-top line of the browser window 
now has a "with errata" link...this was the missing piece.

I still think that the "with errata" version should be displayed by default or, 
better, a popup that says "A version with Errata-fixes applied is available, 
would you like to see it instead?" - thoughts?
