My "official position" is unopposed. I personally like the rule about
omitting the trailing semicolon, it makes it syntactically clearer when
a value is being returned, but I understand some people have also
complained about it. Your change seems to be a relatively simple way to
make the presence or absence of a trailing semicolon irrelevant.
One thing I am wondering about. The other unpopular semicolon rule (for
which I am responsible) is the rule that a semicolon is required for a
`do` or `for` with a non-unit result. This rule never bits me but I
understand it occasionally bites users of the task API. Did you undo
this rule? (And, if so, do we plan to replace with a
whitespace-sensitive warning?)
I left it alone. I like the idea of a whitespace-sensitive warning, but
I don't feel particularly strongly.
