Hi I really appreciate the log window - thanks Juergen - it is something we have been missing for a while. It is a great place to put some notifications and/or warnings that would otherwise disturb the user. Regarding the exclamation mark - I would prefer not to have the icon in status bar all the time. Maybe a good solution would be to show/hide the log from a menu (by default). Just in case a new warning (not just a notification) is issued, the exclamation mark would show up to signal that something went wrong. After opening the log the exclamation icon would be hidden again.
