I thank you and any/everyone in the community who contributes in an
way, and of course my question was not meant as a critique of any tool
or package or plugin.


In fact, I do *not* use any plugin functionality such as async
typesetting. I do find syntax (color) highlighting helpful, sometimes
(when it works ;-) It generally presently has many problems.

Neovim integrates a lua parser. Unfortunately, I believe that it is
still lua 5.1. Nevertheless, it could possibly benefit from the
(maintained) lpeg Context syntax parser.

Getting an error message now with %@context is annoying. Hopefully,
somebody on this mailing list may know and care something about this.
