This isn't automatic semicolon insertion for the usual reasons eg.
{ if (0) }
will fail to parse.

The parse success is due to the lexer automatically inserting a semicolon to the end of a script if it has not seen a line terminator when it reaches the end.  I'm no sure what the specific reason for it is.
