Imho overall this is a good proposal, yet it saddens me to read this thread, 
because it's a good proof for the dogmatism I mentioned before: 
You address all issues of proposal 0117 in a more consistent way with less 
confusing keywords, even adding some features that are actually handy — but yet 
the tenor of the replies is pushback…

As a liberal, those discussions are a tough battle, because you accept other 
people's opinions and strive for compromise, while the other side keeps pushing 
their case as hard as possible to enforce their agenda:
- We need to have "sealed"!
- It has to be the default!
- There has to be no way out of it!

To add some more constructive thoughts:
Given the fact that we are talking about changing a situation where it's 
absolutely legitimate to override (it is the way Swift has been designed!), I 
really thing there is no need for an extra "unsafe"-keyword — a simple 
exclamation-mark would do.
