Hey,

The spec doesn't mention allowing expressions as far as I can remember,
so what's the deal? Yes, the argument is ambiguous with type at parse
time, but it has to get converted to an expression at some point. Is
allowing expressions in is expression a definite keeper?
My mistake, a typeof should wrap the expression.
...and this is exactly why we need meta.compiles(...) or something equivalent.
That proposal had such an overwhelming backing by the community; what happened
to it? There never was an official comment on it AFAIR. Such an addition should
be fine even with TDPL out since it doesn't break anything, shouldn't it?
Yes, such an addition shouldn't interfere.
