Hmm... I was doing this so that what attribute specifiers applied to would be clearer since it's helpful to have the ability to make them apply to different aspects of a method as per C++11. Could I split this up and discard some of the areas in which the changes are less agreeable? (as advised by someone who reached out to me privately)
