I'd rather display a tail of the *Messages* > buffer in the echo area. Quelle horreur. Nothing wrong with something that shows the *Messages* tail somewhere. But, please, not in the echo area. If you want, add a mode/option that displays the end of *Messages* (keeps it on top) and scrolls it automatically, so it always shows the tail. But show that separately from the echo area. (I just keep *Messages* visible when I want that - it does exactly that, but I can imagine a mode that does a bit more than that.)
