I shall do my best to enhance the description, but really the idea is that you 
already know about JSLint given Doug Crockford's in infamy and you're looking 
to integrate it with your build.

Nope. Compare this more with the Java Compiler Plugin. You save a file and you 
want to see whether you've got syntax errors etc.

I don't see the reporting goal as being useful; in the same way that there's no 
reporting for the Java compiler plugin.

I'll take that as a +1 then, 'cause all I'm looking for right now is a vote on 
graduation from the sandbox!

Thanks.
