Considering the names and docstrings of next-error and previous-error, I
think it's quite reasonable to expect to be able to navigate the Flymake
diagnostics with them.

João, was there a particular reason you decided against it? Can we
improve next-error somehow, for this to become more appealing?

Juri, any thoughts? The foremost apparent difficulty is that virtually
any file-editing buffer can become a next-error capable buffer. Would
opening a new file interactively (with flymake-mode being turned on)
automatically change next-error-last-buffer? Would it change after
save-buffer (after which diagnostics are normally refreshed)?
