Very nice. 

A few comments:

* Details of the meaning of a type of violation need not be repeated 
again and again. This is only interesting when a DRC error is encountered 
for the first time. So it wastes valuabel screen estate for the vast 
majority of cases. The text might be replaced by a button "details", or 
"help".

* Add the name of the layout in the title of the window. Avoids confusion 
when working with more than one layout at a time.

* Add a button to ignore a specific violation.

* Add a button to initiate a DRC check after some edits have been done.

I am looking forward to the revamped DRC-UI! :-)
