Meh not sure how useful this would be. Maybe as a developer tool, but not
something you would want running on your site. The SVG validation tool
makes sense because you're validating user input.
* Does storing the validation status of old revisions of images
(and/or articles) make sense?
I don't think there's any harm in it. Better to have extraneous information
then to wait until users complain about not having it down the line.
* Do you think the extension should use the extmetadata property of
ApiQueryImageInfo instead of a its own module?
* Is it advisable to store validation data permanently in the database?
I have no idea about this, but it does seem that the metadata is propagated
to the oldimage table when a new one is uploaded, so it would fulfill your
above question about storing old revisions' validation status.
Exactly what information is being stored? Is it just a flag that says valid
or not valid? Is it a list of errors and warnings? If so what format is it
all in?
They're instances of Services_W3C_HTMLValidator_Response, as returned by
Services_W3C_HTMLValidator
<https://github.com/pear/Services_W3C_HTMLValidator>, containing the
boolean validity, the lists of errors and warnings with machine-readable
information, etc., stored in the object cache. When requested via the
API, they are converted to plain arrays.
