Alrighty then!  (Yes, it was serious, but I claim post-sprint euphoria/delirium).


​Just for future reference, here's a slightly more serious comment: 

I think the "pass" statement wasn't mentioned yet, but clearly noop() would be duplication of functionality. So maybe the closest thing without duplication would be to make "pass" an expression which evaluates to a no-op function, but which the compiler could perhaps optimize away if it's a statement by itself, or is a builtin.
