Aye, but at the moment it makes sense to wait and see if there is even an argument to be had - Nathaniel may decide that even after reviewing the question seriously, he doesn't want to propose a right associative operator :)

That's a shame in one way -- for anyone using operator overloading to define their own DSL, there's only ** if you want a right-associative operator to overload. Still, that's an extremely marginal, and hypothetical, use-case. Left-associative it is. Was that the last blocker for the PEP? -- Steven
