@neilcsmith-net Thank you for your fast and informative answer.
I hadn't noticed that matching tags are marked in green because I've a
different color scheme and, by mistake, I had set the same color to highlight
the current line and also matching tags. Now I understand why this error type
was marked with a different style than in other file types (without a wavy red
underline): because the editor wasn't really marking an error.

you're seeing here as such.
I agree. That would be useful. After all it's also a syntax error.
I've just realized that other syntax errors are indeed properly marked as
such. For example:
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
<foo&foo/>
</root>
```
Here the editor properly marks `&` and `/` as errors. However, there are not
red stripes in the right margin of the editor nor error messages in the _Action
items_ panel. If you've scrolled down/up, and the error is in a line out of the
visible area, you won't ever see the error.
