As far as I am concerned it would depend on the patch. If you can
come up with a way to do it with requiring rewriting all 4000+
functions out there, go for it.
As Andi said, that's hardly the big issue (we could have provided it as
a userland feature, not applicable to internal functions, or applicable
to just a small subset of them).
The big issue is whether or not we want that feature in the language,
and the answer appears to be no.
Well, having half of a feature like that by only making it work in some
places is what I think many folks are against. I don't think the answer
is no if we had a clean and consistent way to implement it. I would
certainly be all for it in that case.
