Sorry but it really annoys me when people consider the English version of English to be the weird one, as the clue is literally in the name as to which version is correct. This is why it still galls me that the language in macOS is "British English" yet the other one is just "English" rather than "American English" or whatever, it's a hideous double standard.</span><br class=""></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span class=""></span><br class=""></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span class=""></span><br class=""></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span class="">That aside, I'm a strong +1 for the feature 😉</span><br class=""></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span class="">_______________________________________________</span><br class=""></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span class="">swift-evolution mailing list</span><br class=""></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span class=""><a href="mailto:swift-evolution@swift.org" class="">swift-evolution@swift.org</a></span><br class=""></blockquote><blockquote type="cite" class=""><span class=""><a href="https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution" class="">https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution</a></span><br class=""></blockquote></div></blockquote></div>_______________________________________________<br class="">swift-evolution mailing list<br class=""><a href="mailto:swift-evolution@swift.org" class="">swift-evolution@swift.org</a><br class="">https://lists.swift.org/mailman/listinfo/swift-evolution<br class=""></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
