The code to automatically fallback to margins is not correct: it
relies implicitly on the buffer being displayed in a window
while flymake-mode is running. If the buffer is created while
not displayed, we will always automatically fallback to margins,
which is incorrect.
Avoid the regression by simply disabling this code. I'll try
again to fall back automatically in the future. (Bug#79244)
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (Customizable variables): Remove section
about automatic fallback to margins.
* etc/NEWS: Un-announce removed feature.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake-indicator-type)
(flymake-mode): Stop automatically falling back to
margins. (bug#77313)
Various problems were addressed:
- Unbreak Flymake for Emacs 26.3. Due to use of some Elisp constructs,
the change completely broke compatibility to Emacs < 29.1. That
violated Flymake's status as a :core package as highlighted in its
description, which has implications for packages depending on it (such
as Eglot);
- No new two commands are needed (they weren't documented in the manual
anyway). The new functionality was integrated in the existing
flymake-show-buffer-diagnostics;
- Some helper functions aren't needed at all (they weren't marked
internal anyway);
- The new hook called only when a particular function is called
non-interactively in a particular way is not useful. A case for the
usefulness (if any) of this hook must be made separately. Such a hook
should be documented in the manual;
- Added missing recentering after revealing diagnostic in buffer;
- The menu entry "List all problems" was never intended to direct the
user the user to any particular problem at point;
- The useful new functionality is called out in the manual and NEWS.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake--indicator-overlay-spec):
Use flymake-show-buffer-diagnostics-at-mouse.
(flymake-mode-map): Recover old definition.
(flymake-after-show-buffer-diagnostics-hook): Remove hook.
(flymake-show-buffer-diagnostics): Rework.

helper.
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (listing diagnostics): Mention new
functionality.
Flymake backends may now explicitly specify an origin and a code for a
diagnostic in addition to the textual description. This change lays
groundwork for richer diagnostic listings and user options for
summarizing diagnostics, addressing bug#77439 and bug#77480.
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (Flymake API): Rename from "Extending
Flymake". Rework.
(Inspecting diagnostics): New section.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake--diag): Add origin, code and
message. Remove text.
(flymake-make-diagnostic): Support new origin, code and message.
(flymake-diagnostic-text): Rework.
Previously, flymake-indicator-type defaulted to either fringes
or margins. But fringes should be used on graphical frames, and
margins on TTY frames. So default to fringes instead, and
simply fall back to margins automatically on text frames.
* lisp/progmodes/flymake.el (flymake-indicator-type): Set to
fringes. (bug#77313)
(flymake-mode): Fallback to margins if there's no fringes.
* doc/misc/flymake.texi (Customizable variables): Mention
fallback behavior.

Add optional support for display flymake error in margin,
this allow displaying error indicators in both graphical and
terminal frames.

* etc/NEWS: Announce the new Flymake user option for margin
indicators.

width.

Some editors have this. Depending on your preference, this can either
be wildly distracting and easily confused with actual code, or a
significant early aid that relieves you from moving around or reaching
for the mouse to consult an error message. To be safe, hide this
behind a customization variable and keep it disabled.
Personally, I find it less obstrusive and more helpful than expected.
