<accesscontrol>Main:MyGroup</accesscontrol> Error messages LnF
- Error messages should always explain exactly what the user did wrong. If user cannot immediately understand what the message means; it is a bug!
- If the same error message is used for two different bugs - it is a bug!
- Errors should appear in the top of dialogues / windows in red color in bullet format. All the errors that are registered should be listed.
- The title of dialog must be "Error" if the message lets users know that they can NOT do that action. And "Warning" if still allowing users to continue that action.
- The GUI should not refresh before showing the errors (if possible)
