Absolutely.

I don't agree with the rest of the proposal.  Asm statements are fairly
infrequent and are rather dangerous, so I don't think the overhead of having to
explicitly attribute them is too much.  They're usually nothrow, but purity and
safety are not such a given.

And templated functions often have attributes inferred, and then you'd have to
mark the asm blocks by hand.  This will be inconsistent.

Grepping phobos shows ~ less than 100 asm statements, mostly in math and bigint
functions.  I don't think use of asm statements is prolific enough to trade
explicitly guaranteeing attributes hold for less redundancy.
