I assume the reason it was doing this was to catch the common case where a semicolon is written instead of a colon. So to address this I special cased that - FixIt replacing the semicolon with a colon (see class E in the attached test). But in the general case, consuming this token just lead to bad error recovery (see the comments for class D in the attached test) - "class foo { public int i; };" would fail once for the missing colon, then again for the missing type specifier for the declaration of 'i' because the 'int' had been erroneously consumed while looking for a colon).

Looks great, thanks!
