You know you want to ๐Ÿ˜„

Heh... ๐Ÿ˜‚

I'm thinking I want to... I confess to not having profiled, but I've always suspected that the slow bit was the actually searching itself, and rg is about as quick as it gets. But in the event that many, many results are returned, processing those in Lua might result in some user-perceptible improvement in the "snappiness factor", so I think I may have to do this...

There's nvim-spectre and replacer that provides some similar functionalities for reference.

Also, the great fzf-lua and telescope has grep functions with send_to_quickfix actions
