Let's say we have a code like ```html <div<span>123</span> ``` Currently this gets parsed into a tree with the element tag `div<span`. This has at least two downsides: - An incorrect diagnostic that `</span>` doesn't close an element is emitted. - A consumer of the parse tree using it for editor services is unable to provide correct completions for the opening `<span>` tag. This patch attempts to fix both issues by instead parsing the code into the same tree that would be parsed for `<div></div><span>123</span>`. In particular, we do this by optimistically scanning an open tag as usual, but if we do not notice a terminating '>', we mark the tag as "incomplete". A parser then emits an error for the incomplete tag and adds a synthetic (recovered) element node to the tree with the incomplete open tag's name. What's the downside of this? For one, a breaking change. <ol> <li> The first breaking change is that `<` symbols that are ambiguously text or opening tags will be parsed as opening tags instead of text in element bodies. Take the code ```html <p>a<b</p> ``` Clearly we cannot have the best of both worlds, and this patch chooses to swap the parsing strategy to support the new feature. Of course, `<` can still be inserted as text via the `<` entity. </li> </ol> Part of #38596 PR Close #38681
