I don't really care much about either. The calculus for intermingled
declarations would personally change the minute that we decided to allow
some C++ - allowing for scoped locks etc via RAII - but not earlier.
The thing I'd really want is designated initializers for structs. Makes
code for statically allocated structs *so* much more readable. And guess
who's working on code that adds statically allocated structs with lots
of members...

That's why I keep moving. At 200 mph on a train :P. A continent away.
