New Julia LTS? Are many using the current (Julia 1.6) LTS?

Is there a reason Compat doesn’t provide @public directly? I’d much rather write

using Compat: @public

@public my_function()
…
end

than

using Compat: @compat

@compat public my_function()
…
end

Not just from an aesthetic perspective, but also to keep shorter lines (Julia already makes it much harder than other language to keep lines below 80 characters)

Should I open a feature request for Compat?
