I'd vote for that, I can think of several reasons why a
single click anywhere on the error message causing a jump
would be "a bad thing" - not least trying to cut 'n paste
it into a mail. But clicking on a link causing a jump
is expected behaviour nowadays. And definitely better
than the current right-click/menu solution.
