I just commited some stuff which makes this easier;
see my message on texmacs-dev.

In your case, you would typically open a new "auxiliary buffer" using

        (open-buffer-in-window "* Errors *" '(document (style "generic")) "")

You next write a function for determining the tree corresponding to
this error buffer:

        (define (errors-tree) (buffer->tree "* Errors *"))

You may now directly modify this tree:

        (tree-set (errors-tree) '(document (section "List of errors") "None"))

Best wishes, Joris

--------------
P.S.: some of the details on buffer/window handling may still change in the 
future,
even though I will try as much as possible to preserve backwards compatability.
In particular, I am not completely happy yet with the way to deal with auxiliary
buffers (which do not correspond to a file on disk), attaching styles to 
buffers, etc.
