Settling on a syntax, and an internal representation for that syntax,

Generally speaking, I'd agree with Simon or even vote for doing the internals first and add the syntactic sugar only later on.
seems like it will make subsequent discussions about those projects considerably more straightforward,
..or subsequent implementations more complicated, because you have to support an awkward syntax.
