Description Marc-André Laperle CLA 2011-01-11 00:32:57 EST 
As a consequence of the solution in bug 314593, some missing semicolon syntax errors don't show a squiggly line anymore. 

For example:

printf()
return;

There will be an icon in the vertical ruler but no squiggly line. I find that when I'm typing, I'm paying more attention to the squiggly lines than the vertical ruler, so I miss it. I would be great if it could look like JDT, see

JDT seems to mark the last token before the missing semicolon. A similar solution for c/c++ is hard to accomplish. We could mark the last character
before the missing semicolon, though.
