Oups, saw you just added it, a C4 proposal :-)

One remark though, I would far prefer if the implicit linebreak is not done, it is a special casing again, for little readability benefit imho... I appreciate consistency for syntax, as special cases often causes small syntax errors for me, that have to be corrected and remove part of the fun in programming: I really like to have a Python that reads like pseudo-code and have a nice coherent syntax easy to remember, sure it is maybe trivial compared to other things that makes a good programming langage but this is what stand out for me first time I saw a python script...

Regards,

Greg.
