Hi,

@Alec, the use case is the following:
Consider you are not the "owner" of the css-class(es). The css provider (a
ui-framework, a designer, ...) will provide one style by message level
(let's say .my-ui-warn, .my-ui-error, .my-ui-info, etc). So you will
override #getCssClass in order to return the corresponding css-class
depending of the level type (supplied as method's argument). But... the
provided class/style is designed to be applied *only* to one element. So,
if the css-class is applied onto both LI and SPAN, there will be a style
overlap which will result to a bad display... As the
message-level-css-class is *always* appended to both elements, there is yet
no other choice (I think) to have our own FeedbackPanel or extending the
existing one with the "hack" I provided earlier...

@Sven: Thanks for your suggestion! It would result to a different component
but it is certainly more relevant...

Best regards,
Sebastien.
