DIP: Tail call optimization

Hi everyone (= I've just added a new proposal to add a new attribute to ensure TCO is applied. The proposal is really simple, but I'm clueless on how to implement it and also interested on getting feedback on it. The proposal it's ready for merge on the new [DIPs repo](https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/pull/6) -- Dietrich

It already does TCO. Definitively a lol day...

The problem is what if you think it does and it cannot do it because of a misunderstanding on when it can be applied or a bug?

The problem is what if you think it does and it cannot do it because of a misunderstanding on when it can be applied or a bug? there can't be any "misunderstanding" from compiler side. either it is a leaf return, or not -- it is as easy as that. what your DIP is aimed for is brain-damaged coders who are not able to understand how programs work (and why "scope(exit)" may prevent TCO). it won't help anyone. sorry.

The problem is what if you think it does and it cannot do it because of a misunderstanding on when it can be applied or a bug? When the tought is not clear the sentences are messy.

I thought we are all grown-ups here!

Get fucked by yourself asshole ! Your penance is that you'll have to review all the crappy DIPs that will come on GH until your death, now that anyone can post his fantastic idea easily.

Hahahahaha.

I thought we are all grown-ups here! i do. someone who is not able to understand when and how TCO works is clearly brain-damaged. if he isn't, why did he become programmer in the first place? it is clear that he is not able to program.
