The problem obviously is not technical, but economic.

That's exactly right. We could take, say, 10 manyears of compiler work
and implement this for a very, very, very, very, very small,
incremental benefit.

Do you think we should do it? ;-)

I think you ought to do something that's a little easier: put a switch in
the
BDS project options that lets you choose what version of the
language/RTL/VCL
the IDE and the compiler/linker should use,

Hmmm. That is a very interesting idea.
