I also agree with this idea.  But it's not that simple to change the existing 
API, and the last time I asked for comments, I had nothing 
(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2018-11/msg00030.html, 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2019-01/msg00037.html).  Also, 
the way to denote the culprit (the invalid token) is quite delicate (except for 
the obvious case of keywords).

I will be back on this issue _after_ I have found a satisfactory answer about 
internationalization, and escaping.
