I'd also prefer any attribute syntax without the bracket-like pair of tokens. I'm just a bit confused about the RFC itself and the PR content at this point. The RFC is currently proposing `@@MyAttribute()` and the PR is currently implementing `@:MyAttribute()` as the sigil. The first brings a BC break and the second doesn't, being the important difference. I'm inclined to `@:` instead of `@@`. Which one will actually be on the ballot? :D Thanks, Márcio Almada
