Speaking of changes, how hard would it be to allow the last element in a list
to have a comma at the end?

[
 1,
 2, -- this is illegal
]

I'm accustomed to the 'extra comma' syntax in Python. I like it because it then
seems to be easier to add new items, and easier to read/write lists in a text
file.
