[swift-evolution] Property Getter Return Statement

[Adrian Zubarev]

Even I would personally want this, this request didn’t made into Swift 3, nor in Swift 4 and is clearly out of scope for Swift 5.

You can read my proposal here which includes all areas where this could be allowed: https://github.com/DevAndArtist/swift-evolution/blob/single_expression_optional_return/proposals/nnnn-single-expression-optional-return.md

Here are two posts from Chris Lattner why this feature won’t come any time soon:

I think the important thing to consider is, what advantage would such a feature provide *other* than to reduce keystrokes? (I don't personally think that optimizing for keys pressed by itself should be a goal.)

Consistency? I know I’ve accidentally left out the ‘return’ enough times due to muscle memory from writing closures kicking in, and then had to go back and fix it. Having two different sets of rules for two very similar constructs makes the development process slower.
