The :link attribute of compilation-error-regexp-alist doesn't work in
an uninstalled Emacs since it looks for the file in `doc-directory'
and it's actually in `data-directory'.
Obviously developers don't agree with most of this, but I guess other
users and providers of add-ons will:
* I think `compilation-context-lines' should default to 0, per
previous behaviour. That way you can tell what the current error
line is.
* I find the highlighting of output files distracting when looking
for errors in the output, but `compilation-mode-font-lock-keywords'
isn't customizable to turn it off.
* Since (I guess) there's no way to limit the region parsed for
errors now, C-x ` doesn't work the way it used to in Lisp
*Compile-Log* buffers -- you get the first error in the buffer, not
the first from the last compilation. The lack of the
`compilation-parsing-end' facility is also a serious annoyance for
dealing with errors from evaluations in a Comint buffer.
* Moving to errors in compilation-shell-minor-mode shifts point
around so that it's no longer at the prompt -- I think it should
just alter the window, if that's necessary to display the error
message.
* I still don't know what the proper definition of `informational'
messages is, since messages can be highlighted with
`compilation-info-face' when compilation-skip-threshold's value is 1.
