[antlr-interest] A wish

[Naveen Chawla]

Yes but unfortunately the syntax diagram shows only the path surrounding
that particular token. Not the phrase which raises that ambiguity. I'm happy
with the syntax diagram as it is, just want to know the preceding phrase
which raises that ambiguity. I wonder if this is actually impossible for the
ANTLR developers to give, or if it's really easy, or if there's already an
ANTLR option to see it in the warning/error message.
