Comment:
+1 on the innitiative. Here's my 2c on the 3 proposals
{{{
1. A global array of error messages.
Advantages:
- easy to implement, as it's the closest to the current practice
Drawbacks:
- has to be loaded on each admin page
- hard to maintain, once the list gets big
2. Cookie based messages
Advantages:
- persistent enough
Drawbacks:
- potential security issues? I have no ideea
3. Database stored messages
Advantages:
- persistent
Drawbacks:
- database clutter
}}}
Also, for number 3, having it also used for private messaging is not
feasible, IMO.
So I would go with cookies on this.
