Cool. I did some work rebasing it yesterday too. It changed a bit due to the recent cmListFileBacktrace changes, and in the end the cmMessenger class is much simpler. >> * Make it possible to make add first-class handling of messages about >> missing packages (for example) to cmake-gui by making methods on >> cmMessenger virtual and subclassing > That sounds useful.

Hmm, some existing clients (KDevelop) parse messages in the form they are already in. They would break if all message formats were changed substantially. Having the above behavior be dependent on some command line option or environment variable wouldn't be great either. The impact of this would need to be assessed. > Very useful overall. I'll write more once I had a closer look. Great, thanks for that!
