Attributes are not only dedicated to RTTI just look at other languages: Delphi, C#, Java. Instead of extending language into infinity you can use simple attribute with parameter. I don't see any reason why don't use attributes to describe some compiler/RTL behavior? Any attribute can be easier placed in many language structures without breaking language syntax. That is much harder with new keywords. Maybe that is not ideal but works excellent. -- Best regards, Maciej Izak
