    > Should assignment be = or :=?
    
    Ultimately, I'd like to see us move to supporting `=` as that is just way 
more intuitive for most people.  Maybe that means supporting both `=` and `:=` 
for some period of time?
    
    It looks like `StellarAssignment` was not altered here, so maybe both are 
supported in this PR?  Is that what you are thinking @ottobackwards ?
    
    I am not sure how this PR impacts all the places where Stellar is used and 
assignment might already occur; field transforms, enrichment,  REPL, profiler, 
etc.  There is some other way in which assignment is handled in at least some 
of these places.  I imagine that we would need to update these to use the new 
mechanism here?  Or maybe that is left to a future PR?
