It's trivially simply to write a function `currify` which essentially does
what your proprosed `curry` keyword does.
```js
function currify(f) {
return function _currify(flen, _f) {
return (...args) => {
var remaining = flen - args.length;
return remaining <= 0 ?
_f(...args) :
_currify(remaining, (...args2) => _f(...args, ...args2));
};
}(f.length, f);
}
function add(a, b, c) { return a + b + c; }
var _add = currify(add);
console.log(_add(1)(2)(3));
console.log(_add(1, 2)(3));
console.log(_add(1)(2, 3));
console.log(_add(1, 2, 3));
```
