[New-bugs-announce] [issue40599] Improve error messages with expected keywords

[Pablo Galindo Salgado]

New submission from Pablo Galindo Salgado <pablogsal at gmail.com>:

Using the new parser, we could improve the plain "syntax error" messages with the tokens/keywords that would have made the parser advance. There is a proof of concept in https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/20039 you can play with.

I would like to get some initial opinions on the idea before going deeper in the issue :)
