There is a good argument for 'distfix' i.e. bracketing operators, IMO. You could define your own if_then_else:

`if cond `then` truebranch `else` falsebranch end`

I would be more happy with if :: Bool -> a -> a -> a if True x _ = x if False _ y = y than with parentheses redefinitions as () and [] in C++.
