Description

I'm using this loader with webpack in watch mode. In vscode you must defined start/end pattern for background task, so that vscode knows when to parse output for errors. The problem is that there is no distinguished message generated after errors are written to output stream. I also haven't found any solution to overcome this with webpack.
Is it possible that this loader generates some distinguished start/end message. It is important that end message is generated after last error is streamed to output.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the loader under webpack watch mode and review how its output is streamed during TypeScript errors. Check the existing webpack integration or loader entry points mentioned by the repository, then verify that VSCode can detect distinct start and end messages, with the end message emitted after the final error.
