 Let’s assume that before hand some constraints in the database - say not
 null, uniqueness, etc. - or even topology rules have been entered. Then
 the user captures some features with their geometry and a probably
 incomplete attribute values.

 When leaving edit mode (or just issueing a validataion check-dialog) a
 modal dialog currently says that a number of constraints have been
 violated. There’s currently no chance to find out which features could be
 the cause.

 Thus an enhanced modal dialog is proposed with a list of errors: every
 line indicates the feature id and a constraint violation text. When
 clicking on a line in the the dialog, the respective feature is
 highlighted and one can change to edit mode efficiently.
