How about it? Write a proposal that changes how the closure type looks
like, so to allow that kind of list initialization (what kind of
initialization precisely should be performed and how?), and be sure to
add compelling motivation to it. Because otherwise the natural objection
is that _today_ you can simply go from

to

And then you're good to go.
