I get the topic is not as hype as generics or other syntax
improvements,
but incremental improvements driven by userland needs is still how we
built
a relevant engine ;)
Despite my concerns regarding the proposal as-written, I can only agree
with this specific message. I find this kind of boring building block
functionality that you wouldn’t notice because it “just works” to be
much more impactful than some of the fancy headline features that make
rounds on social media. But the “just works” is a constraint, as with
any other RFC we need to get it *right* due to backwards compatibility
considerations. And of course it shouldn't just work for one situation,
but be reasonably generically applicable. This is really not something
that should be discussed between just Nicolas and me :-)
