Your post reminds me of two things I've considered attempting in 
the past:
1) a set of operators that have no meaning unless an overload is 
specifically provided (for dot product, dyadic transpose, etc.) 
and
2) a library implementing features of array-oriented languages to 
the extent it's possible (APL functions, rank awareness, trivial 
reshaping, aggregate lifting, et al).

Syntax sugar can be important.
