From Tagir's note it seems we want to use less context than "in a SLB", because IDEs (and human eyes) won't always have enough enclosing context to classify the token. It also seems like it would be workable to classify "yield" as a keyword if it occurs at the beginning of a statement. This is almost exactly the same place that "var" is classified as a conditional keyword: The place in a block where we might be parsing either an expression-statement or a declaration or a block-structured sub-statement. So the rule for "yield" might be that it is classified as a keyword exactly where "var" would be. If it were that easy, that would be nice, since we have a precedent. — John
