Just voted +1 as, unlike some :), I like the idea of distinguishing void
from null.

Is it too late to add a note in the RFC, listing the possibility, in the
future, to forbid using the result of void functions in expressions.

I pray this never happens. It makes it difficult to use functions as
parameters. There are times where it's logically okay to not return
something, and sometimes that same higher-order function can return
something.

I'm also against this for the same reason. There might potentially be a workaround, but I'm not convinced we need to prevent this in the first place. I think it's more important to ensure functions don't return anything (particularly for interfaces) than to prevent the use of a void function in an expression. The latter is fairly harmless.

Thanks.
