Description
8 years ago it was stated that it was bad time to add tmLanguage support for monaco editor - https://github.com/microsoft/monaco-editor/issues/171#issuecomment-245184650.
Is it right time today to do so? At least as an option, because I'm pretty sure that there are many use cases where web assembly is available.
