I like the "implicitly-implicit" idea more (no guess syntax), because
of a simple reason: one can always force a div by saying
%div#id.class, so writing #id or .class feels natural enough to be the
way of the guessing syntax. In other words - since we'd use implicit
tag guessing most of the time - there is no reason to reserve the #id
or .class syntax for divs any more. If special guessing syntax is
introduced, my preference would be
? > * > $

I like the concept by itself too, but I'd probably like to either see
it off by default in core or as a separate magic-haml plugin (that
would modify the existing Haml behavior when installed) as Hampton
suggested (I hope he meant that).

The partials... Does the haml in partials normally get compiled and
cached before inclusion into other templates? If that is so, this
magic wouldn't help in generating the correct contextual tag as the
context is non-existent.

If the compilation happens after inclusion, then the magic would
rather aid the programmer, as Chris Boone pointed out.
