TextPad manages without it. What's more, if only all filename/lineno
references relevant to a single error are at the beginning of their lines, then
it can pinpoint all these lines - whereas if it relied on seeing the word
"Error", it probably wouldn't.
But it took me a while to get it to work on warning messages, with their
peculiar format. I recall that I managed to do it in the end but seem to have
lost the regexp to do it.

Good point. But still, it would depend on the IDE whether it makes any real
difference.
