 ### Changed
 - `AST.Document.Selection` wraps additional new types: `Field`, `FragmentSpread`
   and  `InlineFragment`. Thus validation rules can be defined more concise.
-- `AST.Document.Argument` contains the argument location.
-- `AST.Lexer.colon` ignores the result (it is always a colon).
+- `AST.Document`: `Argument` and `Directive` contain token location.
+- `AST.Lexer.colon` and `AST.Lexer.at` ignore the result (it is always the
+- same).
 - `Validate.Validation`: `Validation.rules` was removed. `Validation.rules`
   contained the list of rules, but the executed rules shouldn't know about other
   rules. `rules` was a part of the `Validation` context to pass it easier
