/* MetaDesk grammar with semantic annotations
*
* Each line represents a BNF-esque production:
* symbol : rule_1 | ... | rule_n
* - Pipe signs indicate mutually exclusive alternatives
* - Square quotes denote optional rules
* - Character literals are terminal productions
* - Tags indicate which way the productions attach to the generated tree (@child, @sibling, @tag)
* and miscellaneous semantics (@fill, @markup)
