Then inspect the TypeScript-TmLanguage grammar files for handling of nested object properties, arrow functions, and return statements; done means later functions receive correct keyword highlighting.

);
}
function two() {
return "??";
}
Screenshot:
Steps to Reproduce:
- Paste the following into a fresh file with JavaScript set as a language
- Observe keyword highlighting not working correctly for any functions following
function one
This specific nesting (a lambda function with a block inside a property of an object inside parenthesis in a return statement) triggers the effect.
