<jimjams>
I've started using racket again for the first time in, oh, 13 years. it feels like being home again.
<jimjams>
one thing i've noticed compared to other languages i've used in the meantime is the legibility of error messages--getting raw line/col values instead of little ascii pointer-y things

i was wondering of there was a place to file a feature request or reasons why this would be hard/unwanted?

jimjams: I remember a lenghty discussion on one of the Racket meetups and it basically boils down to macro expansion, syntax versus syntax/loc and similar stuff.

Typically the more complex causes of errors are after (some number of) expansion step(s) - and mapping it to the original source you wrote is deemed feasible yet very hard.

OTOH in my experience, strictly using syntax/loc for anything more complex helps.
