For the record, I wasn't actually proposing any such thing, I was noting 
that considerations of such a proposal would have been relevant to the 
topic of aiding projects ports from mono.

As others have said, C# is different enough from Vala to make porting 
difficult, particularly as the differences are fundamental to implied 
runtime expectations and not just syntax.
