Who uses square brackets for quotations? Are you kidding me? No, it's not a joke. I saw it in use twice today in a quotation. It's not mentioned in the post but in the comments on the proposal, changing the syntax is also a step towards making the API more secure. There's a lot of good that came out of the discussion such as highlighting the difficulty of changing the API and the various issues surrounding those changes. I think it generated a great discussion and I'm happy to see the draft was published ahead of time instead of outright implementing the proposal.

Everyone has a list of items they'd love to have the core team focus on but that's not how it works.

P.S. Can you tell me if you received an email notification that says your comment was approved?
