Just be warned this:

        val xs = f [1,2,3];

should not work .. because it should mean f instantiated
with types 1,2 and 3. I.e. a polymorphic instantiation =
template instantiation.

Your interpretation will probably override this, and
break ordinary Felix code. The right way is 

        val xs = list (1,2,3);

However for the comprehensions it is a different matter:

satom := lsqb sexpr vbar sname <- sexpr rsqb

because

        [ x | y <- e ]

could never be interpreted as a subscript due to the
presence of the | and <- symbols.
