OK, but this would mean that we would allow grammars that have named references but omit semicolons, and this would mean trouble later if we start rejecting such grammars. Hmm, how about if we work around the problem for now, by refusing to accept such grammars? That is, we have one variable keep track whether named references are used, and another to keep track whether any semicolons are omitted, and exit with nonzero status if both variables are set. That would be a small change to what we have now, and would allow us freedom of implementation later.
