It is an improvement but would it be even better if the return type was Int (or 
possibly type inferred to Int16 etc.). If a float is really desired it can be 
initialised from the Int (or it could even infer float result is required).

Yes, reduces reliance on C APIs. API also clearer about semantics. 

>    * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

Yes

Quick read and a quick look at earlier discussion linked from proposal.
