function parameters (something that i already mentioned). However if this
isn't needed for function parameters, then IMO it is fine. However i'd
rather have it with a semicolon like in cdecl, external, etc. IMO it
inconsistent when some use a semicolon and others do not.

A semicolon has the problem that you need to distinguish between it being a
modifier and a normal following identifier as not every keyword is a
keyword in every context (like for example "read" and "write" for
properties).
