What happened?

With an invalid biome.json (with an extra dangling comma: { prop: "value", }):

[Error - 1:55:20 PM] Expected a property but instead found '}'.

For a couple file saves, Biome just wasn't running, then a toast popped open in vscode and said that the biome server had crashed several times.

Expected result

Where it can, I would hope that Biome just automatically fixes simple syntax mistakes like it does elsewhere.

But as a minimum, Biome should tell me there's a syntax error in my config file and point to it.
