Multiple Return Values

Hello,

I was wondering if multiple return values has been considered for this language. It would, however, require a change in the calling convention.

I thought about multiple return values a few times. I like the idea. I would probably go with the tuple approach, something like return (a, b);, simlar to Rust. But that would be a feature for after the 1.0 version.

How do you envision the syntax? For example, in Odin, it's:

x, y := foo();

Would you take a similar approach or something different?

First thought was

(x, y) = foo();

Though, I kinda like it without brackets. I think I would go without.
