Yeah, this is something we could change. It's severity is kind of related to experience a bit, too, which is why a lot of people won't see it. I find that when I'm making incremental changes, the number of times I save a file containing a syntax error is close to zero. But I'm sure I mad ea lot more typos when I was getting used to Python. My gut feeling is that if the development server detects a syntax error (or validation error, as Karen points out), we should just exit, rather than trying to recover. It's kind of pointless to keep trying to reload a file with a syntax error, since you won't know how long it will take the programmer to notice. Simply stopping gives a pretty unambiguous response the next time they try to load the page. If/when I get some time, I'll have a poke at this. If somebody wants to create a ticket and assign it to me (mtredinnick), feel free.
