I don't understand: Flycheck is an external package; why should we
prefer it to Flymake, assuming that the latter will become supported
well by the built-in major modes?
IOW, what I see here is a serious effort to make Flymake a
sophisticated and flexible syntax-checking tool bundled with Emacs. I
don't see why should we object to such an effort, when one of our
major goals is to provide a modern program development environment.
If this effort is successful, I presume that users will not ignore
Flymake.
