Major productivity apps are probably most representative of what "normal code" looks like and would therefore give you excellent insight into how the language should evolve.
My recommendation would be to port the open source TeXmacs to Swift. It’s by far the best coded and powerful productivity app that I have seen and should have replaced TeX/LaTeX for education and research long ago.
Port Scalaz just for fun :p
another one would be porting a DSL like maybe a SQL DB DSL….. :p

If you want to do it, go ahead. It's not really part of the Swift project (compiler, standard library, core libraries, package manager), so you don't need to ask anyone's permission or make a formal proposal.
