Description
I just copied this code, but moved the lines around from the Bucklescript docs: https://bucklescript.github.io/docs/en/function (Object method)
type document (* abstract type for a document object *)
external doc: document = "document" [@@bs.val]
external getElementById: document -> string -> Dom.element = "getElementById" [@@bs.send]
The lines after [@@bs.val] (2nd line) aren't being highlighted correctly.

Research direction
Reproduce the example from the BuckleScript function documentation and compare highlighting before and after [@@bs.val]. Trace the syntax-highlighting entry point for OCaml attributes, then verify that the following external declaration and its types are highlighted correctly.
