That's all I've got.
Ehhh.... How often will you actually use the identifiers? The point
isn't to make them free for use, it's more to reduce the number of
people bitching about how many keywords there are.
I guess they would still keep complaining since the number of
available keywords to be remembered doesn't decrease.
There are a million words in the English language, so it's not likely
that we'll run short of identifier space in the conceivable future :-)
The real problem is remembering the keywords.
Eh? I disagree -- think about how many uses of "static" there are, or
the wars about "enum". Overloading keywords is MUCH more confusing than
reserving another word.
