I thought about this back when implementing the feature, but couldn't
think of a clean enough solution. I went for the infinite loop with
the kind of shifty reasoning of "oh, well, they'll just have to fix
things while it's looping and eventually it will work," but this
obviously has its drawbacks.

Something better than printing to the screen would just to open the
editor back up again, after a delay where the error message is shown.
