What about the following 3 forms?

private(file) //both setter and getter have file scope
private(set: file) //setter has file scope.  Equivalent to current “private(set)"
private(get: module, set: file) //getter has module scope & setter has file scope

It is a bit weird, but we should probably also allow “public" in that last form: private(get: public, set: module)

Thanks,
Jon
