No no, I preferred the original myself.  I also really liked the if(;) syntax, but alas. 
Although...  I didn't see anything in the ChangeLog saying the if(;) syntax is /gone/, 
just that the if(auto=) syntax was added.  Hmm.  Must check that.

Meanwhile, I have to deal with these scope(*) statements, with yet more language defined 
constants (exit/success/failure) for IDEs and highlighters to trip over.  Fantastic.
