The biggest problem with syntactic shortcuts as options is that

comlaining the app is too slow.
The stuff we are talking about already exists in the engine.
Otherwise I'd challenge this on technical grounds. In the tests I've
done, Revolution is no faster than Director (which has all the
shortcuts you can imagine and then some. Think bytecode.)
Still, I'm done on the topic. I've got code to write in the form of
short stories.
Ya'll dun yer jobs. Good shootin'.
