Not allowing infix functions on the LHS would be a notable simplification.
This would significantly weaken a useful property of Haskell, that definitions and uses often share the same concrete syntax. It's very natural to be able to define things that way and it would be a real shame to lose it (and I think it would break a lot of existing code).

In any case, I've always thought this was weird: Just x == Just y = x == y
It takes a little getting used to, but I don't find it that weird.
