Maybe
configIndex
andlocation
(base, original, user-defined, ignore-pattern, etc.) should be added as metadata to each config before normalization, because they are known at that time regardless of the order in which the configs are inserted into the config array. Then, when an error occurs, there would be no need to calculate them back based on the final index.There was a problem hiding this comment.
