I also think that we need standardized feature for todo/fixme in language, so when you got one's code you can have all needed warnings the creator wants to produce. I.e. probably not some directive, but some kind of.. special comment? So XCode/any 3rd party tools/IDE will know about this standardized format and produce/show user-created 'warnings' instead of compiler(as core team against such warnings in compiler)

    Tools like SonarQube can raise a "warning" for comments started with
    "TODO:" or "FIXME:". Wouldn't it be more interesting if those could be

    optional setting as commented would not influence compilation.


It seems wise to me to have the concept of todo, fixme, etc. formalized in
the language so that source kit, the swift compiler, and things like Xcode
would have a well defined thing to look for and extract information from.

I support this proposal and hope it can cover these typical use cases.
