Here's another idea: What if this new operator and other syntax changes were to be introduced as parser/compiler plugins?
compiler itself, sure we can do something here... but for the parser? Daniel, is it possible? I would be surprised if it is, but you never know ;)
This way the core syntax stays the same yet it may open the possibility for certain groups to enhance the Groovy syntax according to their needs without affecting everyone else. Don't how how feasible this is given that it requires changes to both parser and compiler APIs.
I have my doubts, since the parser is generated from a grammar bye Jochen
