***************
*** 211,222 ****
For syntax options which use a list-like syntax to specify the
! decorators a few alternatives have been proposed: '[|...|]',
! '*[...]*', and '<...>'. None have gained traction. The alternatives
! which involve square brackets only serve to make it obvious that the
! decorator construct is not a list. They do nothing to make parsing
! any easier. The '<...>' alternative presents parsing problems because
! '<' and '>' already parse as un-paired. They present a further
! parsing ambiguity because a right angle bracket might be a greater
! than symbol instead of a closer for the decorators.
