That's additive.  'sealed' would be additive if it weren't primarily a proposal 
to change the default rule, but we clearly aren't going to default protocols 
that way.

Subclass matching can never be exhaustive in Swift as it stands because the 
object can be an instance of the superclass.  You need to formalize abstract 
classes before you can define that case away.

That aside, I agree that this proposal should provide sufficient information 
for class/protocol exhaustiveness.  However, actually adding the language rule 
for that should be a separate proposal and is very unlikely to land in Swift 3.
