Near as I can tell the LogValidator merely tells me which pages I need to fix. It doesn't give me specific errors for those pages. I still need to check each one manually to find out what to fix? Is that accurate?

We could have the markupvalidator module output the error message listing, as an option.

I would suggest saving a log file, or, better yet, a log directory with this information. One output file per invalid file. You don't need to print it all on stdout, just dump it somewhere obvious I can inspect it later.

I'm not sure what format the results are returned in, but straightforward XMl with a stylesheet for easy browser viewing would be nice.
