This might not exactly fit the bill, but it gets you pretty
close, and makes use of some trickery discussed here not
too long ago:
(p > >(tee stdoutLog) ) 2> >(tee stderrLog)
It satifies #1 by spewing straight to the current tty. #3
is satisfied because it creates the stderrLog, and you could
satisfy #2 by concatenating the stdoutLog and the stderrLog.
