I'm in favor of declaring precedence relationships inside precedencegroup 
declarations. So they have a fixed place where they are defined.


The only minor syntax issue I have is that it is not immediately clear which 
operators belong to a precedence group. The former syntax with the "members(+, 
-)" solved this issue. However this has (currently) an extensibility problem:
If you define a new operator and it should belong to a precedencegroup where 
you have no access to its source (like Additive) then the whole argument about 
having operators in one place.


Another minor issue regarding your implementation of the standard library 
operators: "Additive" and all "Bitwise" precedencegroups should be above "Range"

// so this is also possible without parentheses
(1+2) ... (3+5)

This issue can be brought up again during another proposal which implements 
this proposal. So the standard library changes should not belong to this 
proposal (or least be clarified).

Kind regards
