[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
>> Often compilation-mode displays wrong number of errors
>> in the mode-line even when compilation is finished.

BTW, there is another problem with notifications in the mode-line.
Recording devices have the record button identified by the red dot
to indicate active recording mode.  But in Emacs keyboard macro
recording is not highlighted in the mode-line and easy to miss.
This patch adds highlighting in the mode-line like on a recording device:
