We don't have an initial implementation yet, sorry. I'm sure it'll vary a lot by the application. My hope is that it'll just be a few extra non-atomic loads and stores around every access, but it's possible that we'll need to make at least one of those an atomic exchange because it's legal for multiple threads to read concurrently. It hinges in part on how comfortable we are with allowing conflicts to escape dynamic detection in complex concurrent cases. > 2.

Well, I think it's pretty semantically different from a var. It's also really tempting to read the latter as "a var of inout type", suggesting that a re-assignment would bind it to different storage, which is not how it works, should work, or even could work.
