I am sorry that I made the huge mistake in referencing future possible

Please help me fix my error by stopping all discussions of future
proposals and focusing solely on the one at hand.
But if we don't consider those future proposals, then what is the justification
for this one? It does break existing code so there must be some fairly
compelling arguments for it. I don't think it can be considered in isolation.
Does it help your concern about breaking existing code to make sure this
proposal has a LANGUAGE flag? ("-XDotSpaces" or such)
(I'm guessing that helps somewhat but not very satisfactorily; the more
default and standard it becomes, the more often it tends to break code
anyway.)
