+Great idea! Let me add red highlighting for missing libraries in the blend info section. I'll use Blender's `alert` property to make the status text red when libraries are missing:

+
+1. **Missing Libraries**: Status row will be highlighted in red (`row.alert = True`)
+2. **Indirect Missing Libraries**: Status row will also be highlighted in red
+3. **OK Libraries**: Status row remains normal (no highlighting)
+
+## **Visual Result:**
+
+- **MISSING status**: Red background highlighting to draw attention
+- **INDIRECT MISSING status**: Red background highlighting for dependencies issues
+- **OK status**: Normal appearance for healthy libraries
+
+This makes it much easier for users to quickly identify problematic libraries at a glance. The red highlighting will make missing or problematic libraries stand out prominently in the blend info section, improving the user experience when troubleshooting linked library issues.
