I have already been planning a proposal for sealed (in general) but didn’t 
think it fit with the goals of Swift 3 anymore (I had forgotten about the plan 
to make sealed the default).  

John, the modifier you allude to would be to allow inheritance outside the 
module, correct?  Would it also be appropriate to introduce `sealed`-like 
behavior for protocols (no protocol inheritance and / or conformance outside 
the module) along side sealed by default or should that still wait as it is 
purely additive?

The proposal(s) I am planning is intended to achieve exhaustive pattern 
matching for classes and protocols.
