 The proposal sounds like a good start to me. I really like the idea of this feature (and have in the past in obj-c used the compound-statement-expression gnu extension to achieve similar-looking code).
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 One thing I found myself thinking about is: How would `with` work when used with optionals (think failable initializers)? Would the block just not be executed (making it similar to mapping over an optional)? That would sound like a big plus for this feature, since you wouldn’t need to either use optional chaining or check if the value was nil while doing further setup.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Another question for me is this:  Say I want to create an instance of a class, configure it, and then assign it to a property on some other object (it can’t be assigned before it’s fully configured). Could we adapt this proposal to handle that case, too (e.g. `with obj.prop = MyClass() { … }`)? I think it might feel more natural to move the `with` after the assignment (e.g. `obj.prop = with MyClass() { … }, so it could be used not just to assign to a local variable but in any context you want to use it, including method calls etc.

                   However, I share Jacob&#39;s thought that focusing on improving initialization flexibility is where we should focus.  I think it is a better use of our time, effort and language feature &quot;budget&quot;.  This might be a more complex problem to solve, but the payoff is much larger in the end.

                   Ideally instances should be fully configured for their intended use when initialization completes.  I view the *need* for post-initialization setup as a deficiency in the language, the interface of the type, or both (even if a type must expose members that are mutated by users during the lifetime of an instance it should still be possible to fully configure an instance for its initial use during initialization).

                   <br>
                  </div>
                  <div>
                   If we can remove the aforementioned deficiency we will not need &quot;setup closures&quot;. Doing this will require a language feature as well as a way to take advantage of the new feature when using Cocoa (probably through the Objective-C API import mechanism).

                   We obviously need to begin with the language feature so that is where I&#39;m focusing right now.  I plan to write a first draft of a proposal soon.
