Description of the need
In some cases, there will be errors or warnings on the status report that administrators will choose to accept, and ignore. It would be nice to be able to mark these messages as dismissed, so that they do not 1) trigger the red-dot if they are errors, or 2) clutter the status report.
Proposed solution
I would like every error or warning on the status report to provide an X that administrators could use to dismiss the message.
When dismissed, the message would be moved to one of the following places (discuss!) * a collapsed fieldset at the bottom of the status report * it's usual position in the list of status report messages - but grayed out as though disabled
When dismissed, the X on that message would be replaced with another tool that would provide the ability to re-enable the message. (suggestions?)
Additional information
This feature was recommended by @quicksetch in #3824 and would also help progress other issues, like #3490 and #5106.
Other things we discussed being dismissible:
* dismissible backdrop_set_message()s
* dismissible dashboard blocks,

Hello argiepiano. Thank you. It's not clear to me how to populate that global variable in the first instance. Any pointers on that, please?
Global variable
Hello trapeharde32. I'd create a custom token to output that global variable, use the module token filter to be able to include tokens in text fields, and insert the token in the desired node fields.

I used "none" (no editor plugin) on D7. In Backdrop, I am using CKEditor. From the documentation, it looks like Backdrop (like D7) saves the line breaks without the HTML tags: Why doesn't Backdrop...
