>       * What is your evaluation of the proposal?

I think this proposed solution doesn't really address the problem. An 
@objcOptional keyword is intended to make it clear that the feature is 
fundamentally, intrinsically, for Objective-C compatibility. Separating the 
keywords doesn't do that; it still seems like an arbitrary and temporary 
limitation.

@objcOptional *does* make it clear that this is a compatibility feature. So 
would @objc(optional), although that would conflict with the 
@objc(selectorGoesHere) syntax.

Yes.

I think it's neutral to the direction of Swift.

N/A.

Participated in the previous discussion, read this one pretty quickly.
