           Summary: Web Inspector: Simple Console UI improvement: remove
                    "All" button
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

The Web Inspector Console panel has four buttons for filtering the log:
  All | Errors Warnings Logs
Only one button is valid at a time. 

Any reasonable sized page generates thousands of spurious warnings, few if any involve things that devs can take action on. So the setting I want is "Errors and Logs but no Warnings".

A better UI would remove the All button and make the remaining buttons 'checkbox'-like. That is, when these remaining buttons are selected, the corresponding log entries are shown, else not. Then if a dev wants "All", they select all three checkbox-like buttons.

Just in case I am not clear:


Result:               Old Selection     New Selection
Errors+Logs+Warnings    All               Errors+Logs+Warnings
Errors                  Errors            Errors     
Logs                    Logs              Logs
Warnings                Warnings          Warnings
Errors+Logs             impossible        Errors+Logs
Warnings+Errors         impossible        Warnings+Errors
Logs+Warnings           impossible        Logs+Warnings
