+1, sounds like a great idea And if you're volunteering to do the work, even better! :) Philip p.s. Any reason we can't preserve a TerminatorInst type with an isa function which just returns true for all our terminators but without having terminators actually inherit from it?  If so, we preserve the bit of a "type safety" for a variable which is expected to always point to

Going to keep this RFC short and to the point: TerminatorInst doesn't pull its weight in the type system. There is essentially a single relevant API -- iterating successors. There is no other interesting aspect shared -- the interface itself just dispatches to specific instructions to be implemented. On the flip side, CallInst and InvokeInst have *massive* amounts of code shared and struggle
