I mean a thing like the missing plug-ins alert that is shown between the 
toolbars and the content area. I hope there's a general purpose 
interface for requesting such a thing to be shown. Is there?

In the error banner something along the lines of "An XML parse error was 
encountered. The document is only partially rendered." and in the 
content area the document rendered up to the first fatal error.
