Is that your own opinion, or are you just reciting my standard reaction
to syntax change proposals?

I surely hope not. But I might be the one pickled most about them.

Well, if we look at it in "temporal order", I have not had a chance to
voice my infeasibility rant for this particular proposal before your
comment. I did so a few minutes ago, however. If you had delayed
sending your posting until then, it would have avoided the impression
that I am awfully predictable.
On the other hand, there might be some correlation between "this looks
like something David would call a bad idea" and something being a bad
idea that is significant beyond what can be attributed to the "not
invented here" syndrome.
