Thanks for the PR! There seems to be some information missing, and I was wondering if you could incorporate some more? For example, some of the following are things that I've noticed:

  • What are the restrictions for the expression in the default?
  • Restrictions on the type of the default expression. I believe it must be the same type as the declaration, but can there be any coercion? Is it essentially a constant expression?

And anything else you can think of?

I understand that default generic parameters are not documented at all (#24). Although it would be great to have that, I think it's fine to not include it now.

Also, it can usually be helpful to provide some links to more information in the PR. I found the stabilization report which is very useful.

I'm going to go ahead and merge as-is. However, I would appreciate if anyone can help fill out the details more. I opened #1159 to track the rest of this.
