5 years ago Pairing needs to be rewritten, the current regex approach is massively faulty. VSCode does have some builtin pairing, not sure it's accessible to extensions, but that's our only valid hope, as relying on AST parsing would bind us to specific main-file syntaxes, which is very limitative.

The plugin shouldn't rename anything if the file isn't valid in the first place. In this example I caught the problem red-handed, but a lot of the time this problem arises when editing a 300 line file and it renames the top tag for whatever reason and creates a lot of problems that take time to debug.
