Feature: Run in a terminal, but send output to quickfix? #262
Description
The -mode=? option allows where to run the job: async (quickfix window), term, etc.
:AsyncRun -mode term make
This will open a terminal window and run the command there. It's very useful, but one thing I wish is the output of the command can be captured and sent to the quickfix window when the job finishes, and/or streamed to the quickfix window (optionally).
Such a feature would very useful to navigate and browse the command output (which will be lost when the terminal closes), like compilation error and diagnostics messages, etc.

That's quite ugly -- but quite nice workaround. I think it would be quite non-trivial to stream the output from the terminal (but technically possible, see https://github.com/tpope/vim-dispatch), but first-class and seamless API would be good to have (so one can switch between different modes easily).
