Sure, let's improve it a little more. Currently this feature works as in the LogQL editor, but we can definitely make it better, I'll work on it! |

@adrapereira let me know if you think we are going in the right direction. We can then improve the details, such as changing a little bit the error messages—e.g., instead of "Invalid comparison operator", have something like "Expected comparison operator, received X instead". |

As of now, when a TraceQL query contains syntax errors, it just fail when submitted to Tempo. No feedback is given to the user before submitting it, and the error message returned by Tempo is not particularly user friendly.
To help users understand why their query failed, we want to highlight the parts of the query that might be wrong due to syntax errors. This should simplify the user experience and the usage of TraceQL.
