Currently (for me anyway) syntax checking in a D2 ui-template does not fully function. This is a right pain as often all one gets is an error in the browser console complaining about an invalid token, when the dashboard is loaded, and it can be very difficult to track this down to a location in the script. Is there anything that can be done about this?
