I don't think they should be stored on the blockchain, but be available on a mempool for some time, then erased. Although they could be store on the blockchain, as Christoph Bergmann pointed out. You said those messages are tied to transactions, but the field "message" is said to be tied to the public key of the receiver, which means this is a message to an address, not necessarily tied with a transaction.
