So the existing emacsclient implementation already works for you.

They are not workarounds, because grep output cannot be used unchanged. 
Even with the proposed option syntax, users would need to employ a 
script such as yours to pick out the part of the grep output that they 
need, and use that information to formulate arguments for emacsclient.

The longstanding +LINE option syntax is compatible with other popular 
free editors such as 'vim' and 'nano', and there is some value in 
encouraging its usage rather than reinventing the wheel.
