sure, it's not in this proposal. But if telemetry gets added to the compiler, the logical next step is to push it to the next level. And before you downvote me let me state this: the question is not wether this will happen, but when this will happen.

When has this happened before with other programming languages?

Few years back a certain Redmond company shipped C++ compiler update that was producing actual binaries with telemetry. IIRC it got reverted after an outcry.
