Actually Scala doesn't need type declarations in labmda literals. Most

Already does. We're looking for a briefer syntax.
What is the problem with just inferring the `return`, allowing you to
replace
(a,b) { return a + b; }
with
(a, b) { a + b; }
This seems competitive with the other syntaxes for brevity, but ISTR
there was some objection to doing things that
way.
The objection is that it introduces a number of questions:
1. How about using that syntax in regular functions?
2. What if the lambda wants to actually evaluate the expression but
return void?
I function/delegate that returns a value should be implicitly converted
to a function/delegate that returns void.
