In commerce kickstart 2.x it's possible to create a view of messages with a form to enter a new message right in the footer or header of the view. This isn't currently possible with "vanilla" Message.
According to Bojanz' comment (http://drupal.org/node/1714922#comment-6335264), the views handler in commerce_backoffice is generic enough. So here's a starting point for a patch:
