I still think that we'd be far better off if all attributes which could apply to a function's return type were illegal on the left-hand side of the function. All allowing it on the left does is cause confusion and bugs. It's already best practice to put it those attributes on the right, because if you don't, everyone who reads the code ends up asking whether the attribute was supposed to apply to the return type, and the parens were forgotten, or whether it was supposed to apply to the function.
Sounds like a worthwhile impromement to me. Mike
