    I approve the idea, but some details require finishing.

    The proposal has to state exactly where the change will be made.

    The term "combinational construct" is not defined and should not be used.
    Besides, someone might interpret it to mean certain always @() constructs,
    or at least always @*, which is not the intent.
    (I would support adding them, though.)

    "combinational primitive" is not defined, either.
    There are the built-in primitives
    (gates, switches) defined in Clause 7 and there are also combinational UDPs.

    Port connections also need to be included.

    Shalom
