Display virtualtext on each error/warning, not only current

[GoldsteinE]

Subj. Internal NeoVim's LSP client shows virtualtext descriptions on each warning, so it should be possible.

You can try to call :call neomake#virtualtext#show_errors() manually.
I've thought for it to be less distracting to only display the current error.

:call neomake#virtualtext#show() works nice, thanks!
It would be cool if it was avialable as built-in option. Maybe I'll send a PR.

Cool. It could be done by changing neomake#virtualtext#displayhandle_current_error to display all errors then maybe. But it seems not trivial to refactor / change this.
And I'd rather use popup / floating windows instead then, which allows to display more information and for positioning them, deprecating/removing virtualtext support then.

I added this to my vimrc:

autocmd User NeomakeJobFinished silent call neomake#virtualtext#hide() | call neomake#virtualtext#show()

but it doesn't show info messages.
One big usecase for virtualtext on all diagnostics is messages referring other messages, like this:

UPD: it's probably not because of message type, but because clangcheck entry doesn't contain bufnr.

Yeah. Check the output of :echo getloclist(0) to see where the entries differ - if there's an entry for the "previous definition is here" message after all.

I think you might be better off using LSP for this in general (only) for now.

[GoldsteinE]

Seems like only first message is shown
