I like the detailed error messages -- it definitely helps learning the language! But I would also like a 'terse' mode for when I become an expert and want to integrate this into a build system and don't want all that chattiness.

Also perhaps a mode where I could instruct the compiler to fix the error itself (like the closing brackets) and continue the compilation as far as it can and then output the "fixed" code. That might be a dangerous feature, but it could also be a fun feature to auto-gen your code without knowing much of the language :-).
