If you know the operand types already, then there's no problem. But in
cases where you don't control the operand types how will you know the
semantics that "==" will provide? What does the following mean?
if (maybeCollection1 == maybeCollection2) { ... }

In general, I agree. But in the specific case of "==" I'm not sure we have
a solid foundation to build upon. How do you meaningfully overload a
language element that, arguably, carries no useful meaning?

Mine too - we need to wait for a proposal before going any further.
