Yeah, it never made sense to me not to include those, given how simple it is.

The typical octal literal syntax I've seen uses a 0 prefix. This gives rise to quite a few gotchas, as most people think of leading 0's as being non-value-changing. Maybe 0o12345670?

Yeah, I agree that it's not a good syntax. I do think 0o is a good prefix though.
