Description

**[Guillaume Nodet](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=gnt)** opened **[MJAVADOC-735](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-735?redirect=false)** and commented

When a javadoc fails, the few errors can be very difficult to find inside the maven log when there are a lot of warnings. In particular, all warnings are then displayed as errors and it is very unintuitive that a few errors cause the problem.
