Packages: Python Syntax: Python Identifiers containing keywords as substrings confuse highlighter

[dbowring]

In a dict literal, using a variable that contains a keyword (such as in, yield, for, ...) as a substring in a variable name confuses the syntax highlighter, causing it to mark the comma as an error.

For example:

# For copy/pasting:
{
    "a": something,
    "b": form,  # includes `for`
    "c": defend,  # includes `def`
    "d": fine,  # includes `in`
    "e": asynchronous,  # inclues `async`
}

Using build 3200 on linux.

This is #1896, right? Edit: Whoops! I think that's a "yes, but with lots more reserved words"

[dbowring]

@michaelblyons Yes, that appears to be the same issue.

[FichteFoll]

To be fixed by #1896. Only the line with "for" causes this behavior, as removing that causes the invalid scopes on the commas to disappear.
