Yeah, this sounds cool. What I like best about this approach is that things are expected to work nicely (or fail gracefully) both when the user specifies the syntax and when they don't. In this case we may even disregard the idea of collecting information as to which grammars are usually preferred. > I'm a bit sceptical about trying to get correlations out of user input. > Repeating myself: User input is multi-channel high-noise input, extracting > useful signals from that is hard. Does your scepticism mean that you don't expect much useful information without considerable effort or that you don't expect anything useful of collecting the data at all?
