...unless you added an extra rule to re-introduce it. That's why I
threw in rule (5) in my list of proposed changes. Let

    const x = y;

be syntactic sugar for

    const(typeof(y)) x = y;

without having to make const an attribute. See the full list of 5 on
whatever thread it's on to see how it all might hang together if you
went for it.
