Summary:
Using brackets ([ ]) for both arrays *and* dictionaries makes object literals much harder to read. I'd like to kindly request that dictionary literals be denoted with curly braces ({ }), as found in Objective-C, JavaScript, etc.
Steps to Reproduce:
Create a dictionary using Swift literal syntax
Expected Results:
Use curly braces (e.g. { }) to denote dictionary literals
Actual Results:
Dictionaries literals are denoted using brackets (e.g. [ ])
