the program should open the location of the error when a user dbl-clicks in the validation results window #2368

Whenever the user hits F7 (Validate EPUB) when there are references to missing 
media the Validation Results is opened with each missing resource error on a 
line. 

In this case it would be very helpful (read awesome) if by DblClick-ing on a 
line in the Validation Results the program will open each html file that 
contains the missing reference and locate the first match. It could automate 
the find mechanism of the editor since that will allow the user to hit the 
"Find" button in succession until it reviews and corrects every found match.

I found the need for this when i had to delete some background images that were 
messing the layout and of course i had to do a ton of search and replace by 
hand (the same background image was replicated with a different filename for 
every page i think) - this epub resulted from an automated conversion of a pdf 
by using calibre.

Regardless my issue, this mechanism would be very useful for anyone ho has to 
do some cleanup on the epub file. 

Please consider it. 
Thank you.
