I agree that the semicolon looks out of place for one-line function bodies.

The semicolon could be made optional for the last statement in a block. Just have it be a statement separator instead of a terminator. That'd be consistent with commas in enums, array literals, and function arguments.

foo((int i) { writeln(i) });


Yea, that's a case of optional-semicolon that even I'd like to have (And I've suggested it before).

Actually that doesn't work as well as one might expect. In the Cecil language, the return type of a function would depend on whether it ended with a semicolon (void if present, something else if absent). Not very robust.
