Auto-inference is currently done for lambdas and template
functions - why? - because the function's implementation is
guaranteed to be visible to the compiler. For other functions,
not so, and so the attributes must be part of the function
signature.
Dumb question:
Why not auto-infer when the function body is available, and put
the inferred attributes into the automatically generated .di file?
Apologies if I've missed something completely obvious.
