What if one of the expression's result is void? All in all, I think that it's ludicrous to consider changing the semantics of for loops to use a tuple instead of the comma operator. It's one thing to consider eliminating the comma operator outside of for loops. It's yet another to consider adding built-in templates beyond that, and it's going _way_ too far to change the semantics of the for loop as part of that IMHO. for loops should be left exactly as they are, regardless of what happens with the comma operator outside of for loops. - Jonathan M Davis
