Instead of just "doc/messaging_api.txt", the man page should provide a
link to the file.

"message name" instead of "message string" would be a clearer term in
my opinion.

"send_message_callback" would be a better name. It's not as if this
function is trying to be somehow reusable (the error message says "Send
message failed").

> +

success should be set to 0 on failure (this comment applies to patch 2,
but I didn't notice the issue when I reviewed that patch). The reason
why 0 should be used is that that's what pa_context_success_cb_t does
with its success parameter, and pa_context_string_cb_t should be
consistent with that.

I think it would be better to guarantee that response is always non-
NULL, rather than requiring clients to always check for NULL.

MESSAGE_PARAMETERS should be marked as optional.

I'd prefer "message name" rather than just "message".

I think "Excess arguments given, they will be ignored. Note that all
message parameters must be given as a single string." would be better.
