Flymake makes the margin unnecessarily wide.
Its 2 columns width creates too much empty space.
All this to accommodate 2 characters of "!!".
Whereas in the fridge it nicely fits into 1 column
with `flymake-double-exclamation-mark'.
It's possible to achieve the same for the margin case
by using 1-character wide indicator ‼ with

  `((error ,(if (char-displayable-p ?‼) "‼" "!!") compilation-error)

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi Juri:

The proposal seems reasonable for me and simple enough.

I configured my Emacs to just add one ! long time ago. I just ensure that warn face frontend color is different to error face frontend color.
