Possible improvments for XML QC report

Original issue 275 created by @ysavourel on 2012-09-19T19:36:13.000Z:

From user report:

The XML report of the Checker is ok, but it could be improved:

For example the aggregation/additional processing of reports easier. Sample thoughts on this are in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-multilingualweb-lt/2012Sep/0080.html.

If I would have to devise a refined version of a QA-Report, I would presumably end up with something like the example below. If I could collaborate with a Semantic Web expert, I would presumably come up with something that would take up ideas from the Semantic Web …
