Implement a valid HTML indicator like iCab's smiley face. Clicking on the
indicator should open a list of errors. Don't use a smiley face, use something
more serious looking like a check mark with a "Valid HTML" lable. The indicator
should be on by default and well visible.

Mozilla has a market share large enough, so that every web designer has to check
against Mozilla for compatibility. A valid HTML indicator would

1) give direct feedback to web designers if their code is standard compliant or not
2) allows clients to see if code is standard complient or not. They could demand
code that validates with the Mozilla valid HTML indicator
3) allows web designers to easily demonstrate the validity of their code to
clients. It would be easier to make this a selling point of their service to
their clients.

Hopefully, this would make everybody's lifes easier within some years.

Reproducible: Always
