Seems like the author assumes that only one error is returned. What if I want to return []error? What happens if my return objects are out of the normal order? Like F() (int, error, int) {...}.

The proposal is nice, but a bit shallow.

The convention is that error should be the last return value. If the error is not nil, then discard other returned values.
