The lexical analysis docs cover _ and should mention that it is now more special.

cc @brandtbucher; should I cc other patma people?

  • Mention that ``_` is a soft keyword

  • Expand the discussion into its own entry. (Even before this, text on _ was longer than the text on _*.)

  • Briefly note the other common convention for _: naming unused variables.

LGTM.

Maybe Brandt has something else to add.

Looks like we can't do @brandtbucher's suggested :keyword:`case` because Sphinx doesn't recognize the keyword. Since :keyword:`match` is recognized, I did something a little different then
