Even if it's []-after-args? If most people favor that over prefix @deco, sure, I'll give it another look. (It better come with an implementation though.)

It has one, mine (well, at least the grammar and compiler changes).

Anthony keeps accusing my posting of this patch two-and-a-half years ago (!) of starting this whole mudpie...

Cheers, mwh
