People have either experienced the need for this or they haven't. Ask me a month ago and I would have said "pfft, waste of time and language bloat" but I changed my mind recently after running into issues in JavaScript and discovering I needed partial function application to fix it cleanly (vs a mess of mixed function calls and closure-wrapped function calls). I am a little ambivalent as I do feel the RFC's complexity has grown - I would be happy without the variadic placeholder being included if it's a choice between no partial function application or placeholders only. But if I don't want to use variadic placeholders, hey I can omit them from my code. Peter
