Latexrun produces much better sorted output.

Problem might be that problems are all assembled in cumulative error log at end, so maybe the user output during processing is unsatisfactory. That might not be a problem though, as it also gives you some output during processing.

I think right now the output from Latexmk works, while handling the output from latexrun seems more intricate. I could take a look at it at some point.

Actually, I am more positive towards tectonic. It has a nice packaging and download structure (of dependencies), and it returns better stdout and stderr, I think.
It is still very new software, so maybe it should mature a bit...

I don't think I'll pursue the use of tectonic, it is still rather rough, and the development imposes strong restrictions on some use of packages. So for now latexmk or possibly latexrun, which I'm back to considering.
