I see that `Parser.deadEndsToString` isn’t implemented, see [here](https://github.com/elm/parser/blob/1.1.0/src/Parser.elm). Is there an Elm package implementing this function in a “nice” manner? Maybe even one that builds `Html msg` from it?

I often just writ it myself, in the few cases where I need it. However ever a brief google search I found [Dead ends to string by bburdette · Pull Request #16 · elm/parser · GitHub](https://github.com/elm/parser/pull/16/files) and, if I remember, in the future I’d just copy/paste this into my project, possibly in a module named `Parser.Extra`.
