Is the committee planning on working on the preprocessor? I don't see any reason for not boosting it. It's time for C to have real meta-programming. Would be nice to have local macros that are scoped.

On another note:

- Official support for __attribute__

- void pointers should offset the same size as char pointers.

- typeof (can't stress this one enough)

- __VA_OPT__

- inline assembly

- range designated initializer for arrays

- some GCC/Clang builtins

- for-loop once (Same as for loop, but doesn't loop)

Finally, stop putting C++ craps into C.
