Ok, I had another look at your patch, it looks good and is straightforward.
But I still don't like the idea of including it to the Fluid core for 
following reason:
We now have two versions of FlashMessages in the core - the Extbase 
FlashMessages and the ones in t3lib. I prefer the latter as they support 
severity levels and titles.
But, session based FlashMessages do not work in FE mode yet. I just sent 
an RFC to the core list [1] but I don't know, whether this will be fixed 
until the release of 4.5..
We would still have to use Tx_Extbase_MVC_Controller_FlashMessages in 
Extbase as it's part of the API but this could be just a thin proxy 
layer for t3lib_FlashMessageQueue in the future.
Then, the FlashMessages could be used interchangeable in FE and BE mode.
If we provide a second ViewHelper now, we won't have the possibility to 
remove it later on. So I'd suggest you to keep the BE FlashMessage 
ViewHelper in the Workspace extension for now and vote for my RFC in the 
core list ;)
If the patch gets committed, I'll take care of adapting the FlashMessage 
ViewHelper accordingly.

do you agree?
