This proposal seeks to enumerate the smaller features that should be deprecated or significantly tightened in HLSL 202x, which are not large enough to indipendently warrant their own proposal documents. These features represent technical debt in DXC's implementation of HLSL which should be removed in future language versions to avoid carrying it forward indefinitely.

My gut feeling is that this change may be significant enough to warrant a separate proposal that really explores this. I've included it here for now mostly to keep track of it.

I re-scoped this to just cbuffer initializer expressions. The larger changes to cbuffer declaration contexts is proposed separately: #497
