Haha, just as I was beginning to suspect the predictions of 2012 were 
true... but whew, language crisis narrowly averted! ;) Now I can go back to 
planning my wedding instead... :P

You know... that's an interesting idea... but there's a far cooler 
possibility lurking around the corner... Remember the first time you 
experienced 'syntax highlighting' and how limiting it felt to go back to a 
black&white afterwards?

Imagine... an IDE/editor with pretty formatting of math source 
expressions... even if it was just limited to... fractions and maybe sqrt... 
byebye ubiquitous parentheses hell... say hi to readable expressions!

Proper fractions would be a killer feature for readability... and there 
would be no language change needed at all... Am I the only one upset with 
the obvious omissions of must have math symbols from normal keyboards... 
sqrt, pretty please?!
