Unlikely to happen. I already faced reviewer skepticism for making Firefox whine to console about encoding errors. I silenced the most common encoding error to get the patch landed. Fortunately the most common error is also the least actionable one (encoding not declared in a different-origin framed document—ad iframe in practice) so silencing it isn’t crazy from the perspective of the utility of the messages. As Mike said, Firefox reports most (not all!) parse errors in View Source, though. -- Henri Sivonen [email protected] http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
