Say I have function Foo (bar) { } Foo.prototype.bar = function (baz) { } and I insert a { by itself in the body of the bar function definition. I get an error marker at the end of the file. While this is typical of top-down parsers, it would be nice if we could add a little intelligence to try to put the error marker on the first mismatched brace.
