I'd welcome if that happens. My personal favorite is "align", it is common, hard to replace word when one works with text/graphics/forms/ layout stuff, and as D keyword, it is rarely used. Some other candidates are at http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/ attribute.html, maybe except "auto", it feels more like command to me than attribute. What about immutable/const - are they @attributes?. Also function parameter attributes = in/inout/ref - will it be possible to apply attribute to fn parameters? (It seems that what should be @attribute and what not is for big discussion.)
