The gist of it is the user wrote =+ instead of +=. I wonder if we should
disallow during tokenization the sequence "=", "+", whitespace. Surely
it's not a formatting anyone would aim for, but instead a misspelling of
+=.
The gist of it is that it's interesting because it's such a rare
occurrence. That's why we probably shouldn't even think about it. I've
never seen such mistakes in OSS code before, and I've never seen it in
production code either. It's so rare that we shouldn't spend any time
thinking about it.
https://searchcode.com/codesearch/view/15360834/ was mentioned.
Sure it's interesting, but why bother with this special case when
there's bigger fish to fry?
Most likely. My question was whether to put it in bugzilla or not. Guess
not.
