As far as I can tell, this is just a hint for the compiler to generate better 
diagnostic. Pretty much like attribute(sentinel) for instance: we just give the 
compiler more information, we are not modifying the semantic of a program.

I'm actually in favor of this PR so I will confirm this. This is not an 
extension as in we are modifying the language semantic, adding strange features 
or whatnot.
