Personally I would prefer all the modified to go on the right, so that the
declaration is sorted from most important to least left to right. EG:
Instead of:
@disguardableResult public async mutating func x() throws -> Bool
I would prefer something like:
func x() -> Bool @ throws disguardableResult public async mutating
Where @ introduces a list of space separated modifiers.
That’s why I also prefer:
let x: Int // Swift
over:
const int x // C
And moving the where clause to the end of the declaration.
Unfortunately I am not sure this is practical at this stage.
