Ah, ok - agree such information would be very useful.

What do you think about storing these somehow linked to the compounds ?  As
a start could be simple string annotation , but linked to the compounds and
not datasets.   Thus one should be able to point to the exact compound where
the error is.

Perhaps introduce "metadata" for compounds as well?

We also store quite a number of different errors of structures in ambit
dataset services , would be good to have a common annotation/reporting
strategy.
