If you want to move APIs which aren't cross-platform out of stdlib, should there be a similar proposal for the PlaygroundQuickLook enum and CustomPlaygroundQuickLookable protocol? <https://github.com/apple/swift/blob/master/stdlib/public/core/Mirror.swift> <https://github.com/apple/swift-xcode-playground-support> -- Ben _______________________________________________ swift-evolution mailing list [email protected] https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution
