Thanks for pointing out the direction. Since this is unlikely to change in base R, is it possible to change from an add-on package?
I think it is reasonable to eliminate spaces around ^ and :, but I don't understand why /, %% and %/% should be different with other arithmetic operators like +, - and *.
