This all exists and is available. Most end-users are unwilling to put in
the minimal planning and effort required to use the available tools.

This is somewhat of an oxymoron request. You are asking the kernel which
is doing something wrong to know it's doing something wrong and to
correctly interpret what it is doing wrong so that it can write out an
meaningful diagnostic. This get even more interesting when the kernel is
asked to do this for code it has not control over (i.e. CAD's
kbdbase.sys). When you figure out a design to will implement this, let me
know and we can talk to Peter's patent lawyers.

I doubt it. It is probably just different packaging released by different
groups responsible for different support issues.
