It would be too much of a departure from the normal syntax to enable the new
lambda syntax in general IMHO. It's useful for lambdas simply because without
it they risk being very verbose in what is already fairly dense code. Function
declarations don't really have that problem. Yes, the syntax is a bit verbose
if all you're doing is returning a value, but most functions do more than that,
and most functions are not declared in the midst of dense code like you
typically get with lambdas. This enhancement request is such a drastic
departure from the normal C-based syntax that I think that it would cause far
more harm than good.
