@mjbvz Currently, ${ is considered to be of standard token type string by the editor. This is because the textmate scopes generated by the TS grammar contains string.template.ts. IMHO this is slightly incorrect, as ${ is a template expression start token, not really part of the string.

After tweaking the following:

           "entity.name.function.tagged-template": "other",
           "meta.import string.quoted": "other",

I get bracket matching for these template expression begin tokens:

But I would leave it up to you @mjbvz to do that change or not.
