Noooooo..... this is getting worse and worse. You seem to be thinking of syntax issues as though they were purely technical puzzles. The're not -- they're at least as much human-factors issues.
Certainly more clear and concise, but since (luckily for me this time) we're maintaining backwards-compatibility, that form would still be available.
But if you keep all the existing syntax as well, you haven't simplified anything. -- Greg
