hi all....

from irc today:

[16:02] <aseigo> ThomasZ: anyways, speaking of such things ... during kde4 
devel i keep running into things and thinking "ooh, we need to put this in 
the hig" ... e.g. what is the layout of text in message boxes...
[16:02] <aseigo> for instance, bolding the non-generic part of the sentence(s)
[16:02] <aseigo> "Your <em>foo</em> is broken."
[16:02] <aseigo> and how to position error details ....
[16:03] * aseigo figures we should probably extend kmessagbox::error to have a 
details parameter so we can handle that automatically.../

thoughts?

(btw, as these things come to me i'm going to start mailing them here with the 
[HIG] tag in the title, one topic per email. good idea, thomas! =)
