Unfortunately, this is not extendable to chained annotations like the following: 

local function f(x, y, z)
  notnil ^ x ^ y ^ z
  -- do something
end

due to right-associativity of "annotation operator"
Fortunately, that's a syntax error anyway. And what was it supposed to return? x? y? z? It can't return all 3.
