I'm experimenting with diagnostics formatting. * I've added a left margin, showing both the file name and line numbers * I'm showing one line of context above/below the offending line. * I'm using grey for comments. What do you think? Is there anything you'd change?

ASTs typically discard comments, and that's usually what you want. The only time (AFAICS) that preserving comments is useful is for writing a code formatter. Could you write a formatter in terms of a list of lexemes? A CST is a non-trivial bit of code for one use case.

Coming from JS or Python, imports in Rust feel weird. They're entirely optional aliases for fully qualified symbols, which are always available. I don't know of many other languages where you can just start using libraries. Java is the only one I can think of.
