It's no better solution than this proposal.

No, not really. Only partly - and that's the issue I have with this proposal.

BTW the proposal doesn't address this:

class Foo {
        private func joo() { ... }
}

extension Foo {
        private func zoo() { ... }
}

class Bar: Foo {
        // Can I access joo() and zoo() here?
}

And what if you want a member not to be visible to extensions outside the file? 

This is absolutely orthogonal issue that can be solved by the protected access 
level, which can allow you whether the member is seen by extensions/subclasses. 
No matter what file within the module.
