A support for vim8 asynchronous API would be very much appreciated.

This is already supported; use g:ack_use_dispatch = 1 (you'll need to install vim-dispatch first)

The Dispatch support has shortcomings—for one, there's no callback mechanism when a job has completed so we pop up the quickfix list early before results are ready to populate it.

I'd be glad to see support for the Vim 8 jobs API. I'm disappointed that Vim and Neovim went in different directions on this, maybe something like this could help support both.

I gave this a go using pure vim 8 job control: #247

This is a workaround for the problems with using ack.vim in neovim. Some
of that is described in <mileszs/ack.vim#209>.
