Cool idea :) (i don't actually use validator) as i know its not all correct 'validations', but i should probably take iniciative and work to fix it :)
Anyway, please do describe the 'errors', so we can go through the list and see what Daniel & the CanVec product team can possably fix. I don't see it as a 'pain' to fix, since we need local area mappers to help validate the data. But yes, if their is stuff like 'unclaSsified', it all helps remove the need to create a 'CanVec cleanup Bot' sometime down the road.
