Actually, it's pretty simple. We could have unnamed structural ends.
Going back to Nicolas's suggestion, we could do:
val y =
match x with
| 5 => 6
| 6 => 7
| _ => 8
end match
;
val y =
if x
then 5
else 6
end if
;
module X =
val x = 5;
end module;
It seems like it could be a conflict with named ends, like:
module X =
val x = 5;
end X;
but I think we could distinguish between the two because structural ends
have a keyword, and named ones have an identifier.
Personally I'm not crazy about structural ends, but since I think they'd
only be used in very large blocks, it wouldn't be too burdensome.
