Understood.

The problem here is that script functions and event handlers are nearly
isomorphic in the language, with the only difference being that functions
optionally return values. So a change to just script functions would then
look peculiar in that most "functions" (really handlers) don't reflect the
change.
Some might argue that that's a feature, not a bug. If the change were
indeed confined to script functions, it would limit its impact / jarring-ness,
and maybe I could be talked into it if others are enthused too.
