Gcc's "return" extension to c++ looks like this:

   Integer  operator+  (const Integer& x, const Integer& y) return r
   {
     add(x, y, r);
   }

The "return r" clause in the first line prevents a copy of an Integer
object on function return.

Has the committee considered this extension?  It seems so sensible
that I wonder why it was never adopted.
