Hi!

To begin with, I have three questions:
1. Are these proposals purely meant for archival or do they also aim to be the 
basis of an optimal solution for decoding/unmarshalling JSON from external APIs?
2. How are Optionals of Codable types handled? I see no mentions of this. Do 
they map to missing keys and/or null, or are they not handled automatically at 
all?
3. If you’re writing a lot of custom decoding code, how are you supposed to 
debug errors? Do the error messages contain metadata? (I see no traces of it, 
but could happen behind the scenes) Or should you rely merely on Swift Error 
breakpoints?
