So, I was reading over: http://drupal.org/node/161085 and saw one of my personal pet peeves jump out: "Even if your module doesn't have need of a hook_install function, it's nice to Display a note confiriming that the module is installed and ready for action." Core doesn't do it at all and, as far as I can tell, it originated with Views (which most folks take as an admonition that It's Right). Thoughts from the peanut gallery? At first blush, I'm horrifically opposed to it, because I think we have enough to worry about then reading /successful/ messages - I'd much rather Drupal interrupt me when something /bad/ has happened, not when something I /expect/ to happen actually happened. But, playing my own devil's advocate, I could say that "well, there's precedence already - we always inform the user when something has been created, updated, or deleted successfully". Whatever we decide, I care about consistency. If we're going to recommend this in our style guides, then /core should do the same thing/. -- Morbus Iff .sig on the other machine
