Are you thinking the "name" would be separate from the "summary"?  That would
be easy enough to add, I just didn't think many of the expert infos had
"names".  It's usually a sentence explaining an error.  I don't know if many
could be reduced to something as simple as "ARP storm".   Should the summary
text somehow be filterable?  Or just have most expert infos with an "empty
name" because they can't be simplified?
