Re: about some potentially interesting unicode operators

I personally hate all operators.  That said, i agree with the general idea

has limitations on what symbols are permitted in identifiers, but in
previous projects of mine, i was able to work within that prison and used
the · character for a sort of psuedonamespacing.  (I later abandoned this
practice for other reasons.)

A problem with using non-ASCII Unicode characters as operator
names is that they can be difficult to type -- and the way you type
them is inconsistent across systems.

There's nothing wrong with using identifiers as operator names.
C already does this with "sizeof" et al.
