We determined that the arrow between the parameters and the expression
would still be required. Given this limitation I think this syntax is
seviceable:
$someDict
->map({$v => $v * 2})
->filter({$v => $v % 3});
Sometime this week I intend to start another thread that narrows us
down to two choices.
