I’ll have a look at it. I’ll try to do some experiments with this syntax to see what would happen. If the experiment turns out interesting, I could imagine trying to write some C++ over Christmas to cook up an implementation...

I suspect we’re going to collect a number of “good and approved ideas, but which do not have someone signed up to code it up in the compiler”.  This may end up being the difference between something getting into Swift 3 or not.
