As I u understand it, he wants errors to start with filename:line:col and not with error [E0080], for Emacs compatibility?

  Personally I care about vim (and some scripts I have), but I do think emacs assumes errors of the same format. It's generally easy to work with, and output by a lot of things (including [git] grep -n). For my use, what I care about is that important locations that I might want to visit appear at the beginning of the line as either "filename:line:col: " or "filename:line: ". Other lines can begin with "error[E0080]" - that does no harm. If others have more particular needs, I hope they voice them. (nhaehnle seems to want severity following location?)

    The majority of the core Rust developers use either emacs or vim. You can rest assured that this aspect of the tooling will not be overlooked.

      I know a whole lot of vim users who don't use :make or the quickfix buffer.
