So two changes:

* (({def})) will require to return the method defined instead of (({nil}))
* (({private})) will require to accept a (({Method})) and not just a (({Symbol}))

I believe these two changes where already requested (can't find the bug reports yet).

This approach helps also to describe methods beyond documentation markers, making it clear when a method is private inline with the method definition and not after the method has been defined.

I like this.

Feature #7019: allow `private` and `protected` keywords to take blocks

I like to indent my private methods one level deeper, but this indentation is inconsistent with the syntax:

 class C
   def f
     #
   end
   private
     def g
     #
     end
 end

I think it would be nice if the (({private})) keyword could take a block, then i would write:

 class C
   def f
     #
   end
   private do
     def g
     #
     end
   end 
 end
