Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The AST is very deep. This is because ANTLR doesn't produce a AST, but a parse tree. We would need some post processing in order to create our own AST representation.
The new Apex grammar does something similar: ANTLR -> Summit AST -> PMD. Maybe we could do the same for Kotlin?
