In particular, it would be a reasonable and possibly less controversial alternative to the <| symbol. I would have no objection to that switch and have written the suggestion up at http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=harmony:proto_operator#suggestion_to_replace_with Some examples of this usage of -> include: MyObject.prototype -> {a:1,b:2} appArrayBehavior->[0,1,2,3,4,5] let subclass = superclass -> function () {}; var p = newRegExpMethods -> /[a-m][3-7]/ What do you think? Do you like -> better than <| ? Is it ok to not have it available for some possible future function shorthand?
