One nice thing about the new x y ... argument convention: it makes using an
array of objects much simpler:

  objectlist 4 :'method__x y'&> messages

I'd love to be able to use this as a near equivalent expression
  method__objectlist L:_1 messages

But that gets into rank issues, so I don't really expect that to happen.
(Right now, all verbs are "atoms" in the way that verbs match up 
with nouns.  The operations which convert gerunds to verbs in essence 
convert these gerunds to an atomic verb. Conceptually, it might be possible 
to think of verb rank as a property of an array of verbs rather than a 
property of an atom, but this opens a number of issues ranging from
syntax to semantics...)
