This could be done, but not for ES6. Sorry I didn't push this harder, earlier.

    For it to be a concise body, you need to change it to `let f = (x)
    => ({foo: bar});`. Otherwise, it's like a regular function body.

        In the implementations I checked, this is actually allowed,
        but it's parsed as a label instead of what you may expect at
        first glance (an object).

        Is there any reason this is allowed?  If there's no reason
        other than to match function(){}, this should be a syntax
        error, in my opinion.

        A potentially easier and wider reaching solution here would be
        to restrict labels in strict mode to demand a possible
        break/continue, else it's a syntax error.  The only area I'd
        be concerned about compatibility is low level generated
        JavaScript.

        Thoughts?
