I haven't seen anyone else claim to use the current more liberal syntax for fields, but I know that I do rather extensively. I would consider:
Just A {a = 1}
To be confusing, but if you simply omit the space:
Just A{a = 1}
I now find that perfectly clear and unambiguous.
I did consider allowing that, perhaps by making "Foo{" a single token, but I couldn't see a clean way to do it. Personally, I prefer rejecting it anyway. Thanks Ian
