Add "virtual" and "override" keywords for methods #1524

[-][Suggestion] Add "virtual" and "override" to make the function marked as "overridable"[/-][+]Add "virtual" and "override" keywords for methods[/+]on Dec 17, 2014 This would be a breaking change as methods are 'virtual' by default.
it's not even clear what a non-virtual method would mean in JavaScript - there is no such thing as a non-virtual call.

@MaleDong #2000 is open, the suggestion is that is the only thing that is being considered and you should add any thoughts to that issue.

I know that my suggestion (as what you see above in the title) is something (not a must)……Well, however, it would be nice if we can use this "syntax suger" to make TypeScript "more professional", the wrapper of js. Those without the "virtual" cannot be overridden. And when you type something like "override", it will offer you functions that can be overridden.
Thanks anyway!
