 - I always assumed when I get an error, something on that page will
likely not work, but the fact is I was ignoring them with success,
although I do not do much involved work (At the same time I lost a
script after save a few times). Someone else's problem sounds better
:) - the messages are hard to read for me, but, would there be a hint
or two that would help to  decide if the problem is my (on my page)

Thanks
Milan

It sure doesn't play well in demos.

This allowed you to read the messages as long as you wish, let you see them without having to open browser tools and change windows, let you easily cut/paste/eval and especially do a -find- operation on any of the text, all almost for free (ie, a tiny amount of code).  This, and an LK debugger (and changeSets ;-) would catapult us to a higher level of productivity.
