C-u C-x ` goes to the first error. C-x ` goes to the first error when you have not visited any errors. If this can be made to do the job, I would definitely prefer it. However, I take your point about moving point being a strange thing for a mode-line click to do. The underlying idea is that clicking on the invalidity indicator ought to give information about the invalidity. Moving point to the location of the first error was an easy way to do this, but perhaps a better way would be to pop up a buffer giving a summary of all the errors in the buffer. Do you think that would be better? I would rather avoid ad-hoc mode line interfaces.
