How's this for a strawman: the choice is to follow either Objective-C

I find Objective-C's syntax to be its weakest point, so I'm not sure I think
either one of these is a good idea.

My question is whether a new keyword (or token) is needed for lambda at all.
Can't the existing "function" keyword be repurposed here?

How? ES3 already defines function expressions as well as definitions. They are not the lambdas we seek.
