Description _ tboudreau 2008-02-26 00:40:58 UTC 
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.
