Captured. Will at least be part of modeling and productivity.
Looks like a trivial, non-controversial change.
Time permitting this could be part of fast-track.
Particularly if someone wants to work on a full language change
proposal for it. See the fast-track proposal page for the
template.

Probably belongs in one of the subgroups.
The initial thread belongs in FT. The reason
it is here though is because the co-team leader of FT
(me) posted the meeting notes to both the FT and the
general reflector.
I am not unhappy with the results. Posting to the general
reflector seemed to capture a wider audience than if I had
just posted to the FT reflector.
Next time I will make sure that I ask everyone to post
replies to the FT reflector though.
Cheers,
Jim
