Yes, I agree with that.

That's what I was thinking, too. As a consequence I think it should
be possible to provide Icons for those types of tasks that
are no real "build issues". Those other "issues" might not
always be of the type warning,error or unknown after all.

Well the wording "task" was exactly what made me think that this is
the correct place to display things like TODO and FIXME markers,
because what they really are is "tasks" =)

Best regards,
