Request: Bugsack!

Can someone please create an equivalent to Bugsack from WoW? For those not familiar with Bugsack, it stopped the UI Error window from appearing, but accumulated them in an error log. It also optionally had an sound play when an error occured. That means that any errors that occur are still show, but don't appear in your face in the middle of the game.

What I'd like to see is another icon appear next to the chat window (along with notification, mail, etc) that shows when a UI error occurs. Clicking on this would show a window that pages through all the UI errors.

Is there anyone who can do this?

Sounds like a cool idea. Thought Im not sure if we have enought access to the API to do so so it might reqiure a kind of dirty workaround to hide the default window and grab its contents. Ill try if its possible.

Nice idea. I think a PreHook on the UI Error Window should already do the trick, shouldn't it? Try to get the text somehow and never show the window itself. Although a PreHook might be too early for grabbing the text?
Still need the custom elements of the actual addon of course.

So is anyone actively working on this. There is one on Curse called Bug Log, but all it does right now is send the output to the chat log. Ideally it should output to a file or UI for preparation to send an email/bug report to addon authors.

Nvm. Well, let me see if I can do something from theory without testing in the meantime. ^^
