Update to the proposal:

Since we can't make spaces in JavaScript, the best we can do is use '_' instead.
We will also git rid of ':' after statement in the old version as '_' is enough 
indication and it's more compatible with our current curly braces syntax.

Final result:

```
if (foo==2) _
bar() _
bar2()
```

Which is the same as:
```
if (foo==2)
_ bar();
_ bar2();
```

Basically `_` would allow chaining expressions inside a statement block.

Thank you,

Browsers (WPWG, not this group) tried WebSQL. It failed because there
wasn't a competitive bake-off with any other implementations _besides_
SQLite.

If a browser vendor had used another engine, then SQLite might've won
the bake-off and now you'd have what you describe.
