Rhetorical question: Aren't you talking about C++?
Semi-rhetorical question: What would be this language's intended use?

1. How about string operators.
	I hate handling allocing of space for something silly like strings...

2. Ability to dynamically define new operators

3. Ability to use existing C libraries and headers.
	Otherwise, I want:
		a. screen handling poop
		b. internet poop
		b. X poop
		c. :-)
	Seriously, I would consider the ability to link in existing
	libraries, one way or another, an absolute must.
