I forgot about C-h . - I never used it.  The reason why I expected the
error message to leave the trace in the *Messages* buffer is because
I disabled the tooltip, so on mouse hover the error message is displayed
in the echo area, and I expect everything displayed in the echo area
to remain in the *Messages* buffer.

Is it possible to make the Flymake Diagnostics buffer more accessible?
For example, to show it by clicking on the fringe indicator:

(define-key flymake-mode-map [left-fringe mouse-1] 
'flymake-show-diagnostics-buffer)

stackoverflowable :)
