There was a proposal for exactly this a few years ago, which ended up in an RFC 
with a slightly different syntax (using a declare() statement), but was 
declined in voting by 35 votes to 2.

I can't remember much about the discussion, so am not sure what changes would 
make a new attempt more likely to pass.
