Error message improvement suggestion (structure length)

When the following error message is generated:

... warning #6380: The structure length is not a multiple of its largest element; could create misalignments for arrays of this type. [...]

I think it would be helpful to provide the missing information, such as:

... warning #6380: The structure length (nnn) is not a multiple of its largest element (mmm); could create misalignments for arrays of this type. [...]

Similar thing with

...warning #6379: The structure contains one or more misaligned fields.
 

If you could list the first misaligned item, it would help immensely in locating the error (problem)
