Hi Jasdev,

I wanted this once, before Swift 1 was released.  Its lack was easy to
work around and I have never wanted it since, so... I'm afraid I don't
think it is worth complicating the language for.  Your proposal shows
how the feature *can be used*, but doesn't make a compelling case that it
*will be very useful*.  That's what would be needed to convince me.

HTH,
