As already mentioned, we have three such stubbers already. You can even put a partial/incomplete implementation after them: just terminate the ... or w/e with a semicolon.
What none of them will do for you is allow a syntactically incorrect body. But the proposed feature *also* will not allow that; you'd have to do it as a slang to get that, and even then I suspect you will find error recovery / parser resynchronization to be nontrivial.
