Proposing new syntax for zero-cost unwrapping options/results

That’s definitely an interesting idea. Maybe by an annotation or similar:

@toResult
external somethingThatCouldThrow: string => string = "somethingThatCouldThrow"

// let somethingThatCouldThrow: string => result<string, JsExn.t>

@xfcw if you’re interested in this, would you open an issue on the compiler issue tracker so we have somewhere to discuss? It’s off topic for this thread of course.
