>It's useless, they can be written with standard S\" word:

>: .\" POSTPONE S\" POSTPONE TYPE ; IMMEDIATE

That won't be standard, if the proposal excludes POSTPONEing S\" in
order to allow STATE-smart implementations like the reference
implementation.

>: .\( ['] S\" EXECUTE TYPE ; IMMEDIATE

That's not supported by the current proposal, because it only
defines the compilation semantics for S\".
