+1.
I would support requiring spaces around _all_ operators. I can't
immediately think of any operator where it would be detrimental, at
least, albeit my memory is not the greatest.
FWIW, it's pretty common to sometimes omit spaces around arithmetic
operators +, -, *. This was common enough to derail the idea to make
negative integer literals be lexed ( "-", no space, numeric literal ).
So you'd have to fight that battle.
I think spaces around all operators sounds nice in a new language; I'm
not sure about Haskell.
