Tags are not very important, I agree with you for them being overkill and having them just in one particular place is not satisfying. That being said, it's an advanced feature that a newcomer can just ignore. It does not make the current features worse. The other issues you raise about the with block are there because this block is specific. It can be rewritten to a block with standard syntax (and add tags later or forget them).
My main point is that the `with` contruct allows for very erlangish error handling and promotes good practices, but its current syntax feels a bit arcane, as you've said, so it should be changed to be more accessible. I'm glad if I gave you some fun :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elixir-lang-core" group.
