[wp-hackers] PHP notice warnings

[Moritz 'morty' Struebe]

It would be great to have some kind of debugging mode. Maybe setting 
some special cookie so the "normal" users of your blog are not affected. 
You normally don't want them to see any errors.
That would also help helping users remotely. Of course it should be easy 
to activate this (not having to mess around with files).
