I have tried a couple of prose linters, including LanguageTool, 
and settled on Vale [1] with Flymake. I run Vale/Flymake in all 
kinds of buffers, from regular documents to chat and more. I have 
a list of regular expressions that make Vale ignore code, 
mathematics, citations, and the like. It works well. I would like 
to plug in a spell checker to Vale next and then disable Flyspell. 
With that, my list of regular expressions will apply to both style 
and spell checking.
