New issue 549 by bryan.oakley: test parser should retain line numbers http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=549 It would be nice if the internal robot data model could remember line numbers from the original file, so that error reports could reference back to the original file. Even if exact numbers aren't possible it would still be useful. For example, if a single keyword call is extended over several lines it might only save the line number of the first line. This would make it easy(ish) to write a grep utility that is keyword aware, and can return file and line numbers to make it easy to jump to the keyword via a text editor.
