(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

This was apparently further reworked in

commit 94a88c1ae98b1bf7ab80ae9cdd4d6e16b36597ef

    New Flymake API variable flymake-diagnostic-functions

and the uncommented line has now been removed (and the hook function is
no longer documented).  So I guess that's been decided now, and I'm
closing this bug report.
