If that functional framework is well design and generally
useful (it could -- ideally should -- help in simplifying
the few Flymake backends that are already in core) then
we can add it to lisp/progmodes/flymake.el.
Flymake is a :core ELPA package, meaning you could submit that
change to the master branch and it would soon be accessible to
other ELPA packages. Then your flymake-rest package could just
depend on this new version of Flymake and so could other packages
like Eglot (of course, only if the change were actually beneficial to it).
TL;DR In general, if you see yourself typing any code that
could help Flymake elsewhere in other contexts, consider
submitting that code to lisp/progmodes/flymake.el
