I know that we're not voting, but I miss a binary literal very much. I would also like a literal digit separator to improve readability. Verilog Hardware Description Language does that with an underscore [1]. For example, 0xad_beef to improve readability of a hex literal, and 0b011_1010 to improve readability of a binary literal.

If they pick this up, they will likely use C++'s syntax/rules.
