Hmm, good question. Ignoring any historical reasons for why flyspell does what it does, a quick search on the Emacs lists makes me think at least one open issue is how to prioritize/combine different next-error sources: * https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2018-04/msg00207.html 87zi2esn7l....@mail.linkov.net * https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30674#8 87a7vkrelc....@mail.linkov.net That's getting a bit off-topic for the Org mode list though...
