I noticed that the emacs-26 branch contains a half-baked version of the flymake.el rewrite that I'm working on. More than a month ago, I asked here whether this work, that I prematurely and mistankenly pushed to the then-master branch in error, should be reverted. Stefan said it "was going in the right direction", so it wasn't reverted. The finished work isn't quite ready yet, so now I see these alternatives: 1. Either the half-baked work is reverted in the emacs-26 branch; or 2. It is left in as-is. This is not recommended. Although it doesn't break any compatibility I know of, it's not good work at all. Among other things, it introduces a user-visible variable that I= got rid of in the meantime. 3. "A few finishing touches" aka "makeup on a pig" are applied. 4. The bulk of my flymake rewrite somehow makes it into emacs-26 in time. It would be nice to see it in a release, but it's certainly not "a few finishing touches" 5. ? Sorry for noticing this so late in the process. The flymake rewrite is progressing quite nicely in the scratch/flymake-refactor branch. It is mostly ready for review, I will post here very soon.
