I agree with the semantics of memberwise initializers (+1 to adding a reasonable implicit memberwise initializer for classes, and the ability to use default arguments in that implicit memberwise initializer). However, I would prefer to accept the semantics as improvements to the creation of the implicit memberwise initializer, so it’s a -1 to the “memberwise” specifier and “…” placeholder syntax.

The core team can do any of the above, including accepting subsets of proposals, accepting a proposal with modification, sending a proposal back for revision to come through the process again, etc. In general, we’ll try to do the lowest-overhead thing that makes sense for Swift.
