Something like that, yes.
Or instead of an heuristic to get an ast, have an editor which has the
logic of editing the ast (instead of typing text which will be rightly
or wrongly matched to a tentative ast).
I'm looking into doing some stuff about asts and editing for
SmaCC-generated asts. Some stuff about having core building blocks for
non-smalltalk IDE written in Pharo.

You know I would like to have
format as you type.
if someone wants to work on that it would be great.
The point is to have some heuristics to get as fast as possible a
"complete" ast.
And pretty print it for example each time a space is added.
