@cmuratori@Jonathan_Blow Oh, you mean *only* for error recovery? Then I misunderstood you. Yeah, that's far less objectionable. -

@cmuratori@Jonathan_Blow Though I dislike that variant too - makes it easy to introduce bugs where the parser can't make progress. -
@rygorous@Jonathan_Blow Validation is a separate thing though, right? You can always do LALR validation if you wanted to do that. - Show replies
