Rationale:
Typing at the command-line generally proceeds from left to right, and the typist may open many brackets as he goes. Newly-opened brackets usually not errors, but unfinished thoughts. The user may therefore wish to style open-bracket match-failures differently than close-bracket match-failures.
I prefer to color only the close-bracket match-failure as an error:
This code actually could be written to fall through to
bracket-errorinstead of having a distinctbracket-error-closestyle, but that asymmetry might confuse the user.
