[swift-evolution] [swift-evolution-announce] [Review] SE-0102: Remove @noreturn attribute and introduce an empty NoReturn type

[Brandon Knope]

I have to say, this might be the most swifty of the swift proposals. 

There's something about it that's elegant and beautiful, so big +1 from me. 

I do think Never makes more sense, but I understand the clarity that NoReturn brings. 

For a feature that most probably won't even use, maybe we could get away with it being Never...
