Re: [Haskell-cafe] Language complexity & beginners (Was: New type of ($) operator in GHC 8.0 is problematic)

Won't it create ambiguity problems...?

we could set simple criteria for "; " a) within code block - keep the current meaning : new statement b) elsewhere: pause application ($) $ would keep its current meaning and the new "honest, confusing" type. Still be usable, would not break the code. ; may mark the code visually better than $ e.g. braces are overloaded: code block, data record
