[swift-evolution] [swift-evolution-announce] [Review] SE-0022: Referencing the Objective-C selector of a method

[Nick Shelley]

+1

Over the weekend I converted a `canPerformAction` method for
UIMenuController actions from Objective-C to Swift and was sad that the
compiler was helpful in Objective-C (with @selector syntax) but not in
Swift. Anything that makes code less Stringly typed is a good thing in my
opinion.

I only did a quick reading of the proposal and didn't follow any discussion
beforehand.
