Could we please coordinate warnings, errors and messages? This could
make it more easy to find errors.
I suggest as a simple first step to record all errors and warnings in
the message buffer.
For warnings this is very simple. Just move the code for
noninteractive in display-warnings so that it is always run.
For errors this means outputting a message even when debug-on-error is
non-nil. I am not sure how to do that.

Do you mean to duplicate messages from the *Warnings* buffer to the
*Messages* buffer?

Do you want this for `error' or for your new function `user-error'?

Yes, that is a good beginning.

For `error'.

I think it would be confusing for the *Warnings* stuff to show up in
*Messages*, too.

If debug-on-error is nil, it looks like the error messages already end
up in the *Messages* buffer. When we have debug-on-error non-nil, I
don't quite a use case for doing that, and it would be a bit
inconsistent: We haven't actually shown the error message, so putting it
in the *Messages* buffer doesn't seem quite right.
So I'm closing this bug report.
