+1. It's a positive change. It makes un-annotated code safer, and it moves the 
annotation to the case where one needs to think about captures as opposed to 
annotating the case where one doesn't have to think about captures.

Yes. It both helps in the un-annotated cases and it adds explicit annotation 
for escaping closures which serve as a documentation that one need to think 
about how variables are captured when invoking these functions/methods.

Yes. It's goes with the safer of the two choices by default. I also imagine 
that it might be ever so slightly more performant I these cases.

I've not used another language that explicitly makes a distinction between 
escaping and non-escaping. 

Objective-C blocks always capture everything, which has led to a common 
"weakify/strongify dance" in most cases, even in cases where there wasn't a 
cycle.

Read the proposal, skimmed thought the discussion, and a little experimentation 
with the current syntax.
