Status values should hold a map of string values for extra metadata. This would allow for things like:

  • Specification links
  • Specification UUID references
  • BNF rules

This would allow for compiler frontends to turn the extra information into much more detailed error messages, where information can be selectively enabled/disabled. Right now, the only thing those compilers can do is pack everything into one large error message.
