This RFC is using the declaration of the return type, to specify that it never returns. As such noreturn or never is a keyword a long the lines of public or final, but it is not a return type. I don't think the argument for potential optimizations in Opcache to eliminate dead code or allow IDEs to hint at dead code are valuable enough to justify this change.
