We all know that the compiler can be stupid some times, and even if it is not people may want to inline something that is normally not appropriate for inlining. Auto inlining is fine, but people should have control over such kind of things I believe.

Looking ahead, I think macro() will reduce the need for an inline 
specifier.  Yeh, it won't be quite the same, but it'll be close enough 
that making a separate inline keyword may not be worth it.
