Given the following code with mismatch {}'s in the string:

void main() {
  var i = 0;
  print('foo ${i');
}

dart2js gives the error:
squigly_error.dart:3:13: unmatched '{'
void main() {

I would expect it to report the error for the print statement, not for the main() method.

This is a good suggestion, but it might be tricky to fix. The problem is that string interpolation has rather confusing syntax and allows you to seemingly nest a single quote string inside a single quote string.
