I'm curious: what do you want in terms of error reporting? I wonder how much we could get from CSS.
Replying to @dginev
Oh sure, there is no question that error reporting in LaTeX is abysmal — and probably can’t be fixed due to the language.
Replying to @dginev
My question is more: HTML+CSS are getting pretty good at typesetting, and are declarative. What error reporting would you expect?
Replying to @dginev
It might be that none is needed; but maybe there are interesting features that could be added there. Cc @dauwhe

So you are thinking of a purely semantic/structural system that can then be typeset? @dauwhe
