A change from synchronous to asynchronous or vice versa is the main example I can think of and that definitely impacts clients (at least when going from sync to async). Do you have any examples of where you would reasonably change the escaping behavior without an impact to client code other than the escaping change? > Félix > >> Le 20 déc. 2015 à 11:14:51, ilya via swift-evolution >> <[email protected]> a écrit : >> >> > If we don’t change the default maybe we should at least add a warning when >> > you *could* add @noescape but didn’t.
