This could be either. At the moment, I don't see the use of this to be compelling enough to be in the compiler. That said, the description of the use case is ~3 short sentences. In general, implementing LLVM attributes in Clang directly is typically not sufficient.
Also, I agree with Eli, IF we do decide to do something like this, it needs to be holistically integrated/designed with the source language.
