Short answer: full fidelity (or concrete) syntax (including trivia) is not supported currently.

Long answer: Esprima is based on the ESTree specification, which doesn't implement full fidelity syntax. There is an open proposal though, without a clear perspective.

But even if such thing gets spec'ed, it's unlikely that it will ever land here. Besides the fact that implementing it would be a huge amount of work, there are also other aspects to take into account:

[...] because its main consumer is Jint, which wouldn't want to pay the price of a more detailed AST model.

(Quote from a related discussion).

So, I'm pretty certain that full fidelity syntax can only happen in a fork.
