Another alternative (which I got from Greg Morrisett) that I'm toying with is this. It's tiresome to write

f <stuff1> <stuff2>
Using Control.Applicative you could already write: f <$> x <*> y I don't see the immediate need for more syntactic sugar - this is about as concise as it can get and it does not require compiler extensions.
