Hi Ilija,

The problem with voting on alternative syntaxes is precisely that there *are* so many different
options. Designing a vote with multiple options that gives an answer people are happy with is a
whole science in itself.
I think the best we can do is have a "without prejudice" vote on a single proposal - if it
is declined, a new proposal can be made after a suitable period of reflection. This has already
happened once with this very topic, this RFC having emerged from a previous one being rejected.
That doesn't mean we can't discuss other syntaxes, but just opening up all possible
options to a vote doesn't really help IMHO.
