Similarly what are D user's potential issues with Go-like

Such changes will not happen even in D4. Walter is strongly
against the idea of optional semicolons, on the base that
semicolons help the parser, so they allow better error recovery
and error messages.

Is there any evidence that these are issues in Go? That sounds
like a theoretical objection that isn't attackable when no one
has done it but turns out not to be terribly important when
someone actually does it.
