I think it has a somewhat reasonable chance of being implementable.  It
would certainly take quite a bit of shaking out ambiguities, though.
Particularly in situations lacking context, like in #{ #} and on the
right side of assignments and as function argument it might prove hard
to get really satisfactorily consistent and understandable behavior.

And I don't want to introduce it myself before I get the whole function
call/identifier area to a state I consider a stable basis for further
work.
