Hehe. I think it looks quite nice how it works in Scala, at least in
theory.
But on the other hand Scala makes this really usable by having infix
operators and that all operators are just methods. That's how operator
overloading works in Scala.
And as a direct result, it's parsing is so slow that last time I tried
to use the Scala IDE for Eclipse, it would lock on save as it tried to
parse the source.
Wait... they had to defer parsing to the file save action, because it was
to slow to do on the fly? (lol)
