The new Flycheck icon hides information #61

While I like the concept of having a FlyCheck icon available, the current pattern:

("\\` ?FlyC.*\\'" "flycheck" xpm)

hides relevant (and important) information, such as the number of warnings/errors found in the current buffer. Can this be updated so that instead of a .* match, only FlyC mode symbol gets replaced, and the information is left as is?

Flycheck minor mode (indicator FlyC:1/119):

gets replaced with only ! symbol:

Yes. You are correct. The update of FlyC do only replace a portion of the mode can be done, but is not as straightforward as it may seem for this property. For now I'm disabling the FlyCheck icon...
