I always mentally think of them as mandatory anyway. +1 to Mandatory.

As I suspect there are many here not following the [gosh] threads, I'm repeating a question from yesterday to a wider audience. Apologies in advance if you do read those threads and just didn't care enough to comment yesterday ;) If Dimitri's great efforts to try and get us early access to the Falcon compiler fail and we instead carry on with trying to develop our Goshawk compiler, I'd like to make a change to the AS3 language spec by making semicolons at the end of statements mandatory. I wanted to find out well in advance whether anyone sees this as a show-stopping "no way" change, or whether there would be broad support for it. David.
