Your notion of obviousness seems skewed ;-)
Lack of implementation should not be taken as a sign that developers don't
want a feature.

Several people have asked for that. I have no preference and it's just
a change of the default value of a variable, so anybody can do it.

Are you referring to the `face' or the `mouse-face' property?
I agree there should be a way to turn off the `face' property in
compilation buffers. I hadn't thought about the `mouse-face' property yet
and am not sure what to think of it.

This is a bug I'm working on.

By "moving to errors" you mean "with C-x ` or somesuch", right?
Sounds like a bug indeed, although more minor.

I don't understand this. Maybe Daniel can help.
