[swift-dev] This little program currently compiles fine, but should it?

Ok thanks, and what about the initial topic of this thread, ie stuff like
this:

func f() {
    1; "two"; 3.0
    [4, 5]; 6 * 7
    print("No warnings or errors!")
}
f() // No warnings or errors!

Should I file a bug for that too or is this by design / has this been
discussed somewhere already?
