Decorators for functions

[Andrea Giammarchi]

You haven't provided a single use-case example, like how are you going to
decorate a function or why.

IMO if implemented it will be incompatible with non ES6 code unable to
distinguish between classes and functions unless fully transpiled, making
decorators less portable.

One thing I like about current state is that you can use decorators even in
ES5 browsers [1]

Just my 2 cents, Regards
