> * What is your evaluation of the proposal?
I like it quite a bit.
It uses very readable syntax and covers most cases (I’m glad to see the backticks are gone). Requiring a typing context for disambiguation when the labels are not sufficient seems like a reasonable approach.
I would really like to see a solution for getter/setters in Swift 3 but agree that lenses are the right approach to that and it would be an independent proposal.
I agree that the general partial application syntax is unnecessary. It might be nice to have something a bit cleaner than $0 for shorthand in closures someday and _ might work for that, however it is an orthogonal topic.
> * Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?
Yes
> * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
Yes
> * How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?
I read both drafts of the proposal and followed the discussion on the list.
