Semicolons and additional allowed token sequences
ECMAScript5.1, but ECMAScript2018 too, says:
The syntactic grammar as presented in clauses 11, 12, 13 and 14 is actually not a complete account of which token sequences are accepted as correct ECMAScript programs. Certain additional token sequences are also accepted, namely, those that would be described by the grammar if only semicolons were added to the sequence in certain places (such as before line terminator characters).
Can someone make an example of a token sequence not described by the above clauses but accepted as correct program?
