With hindsight, I would have to say that we haven't missed the lack of
customisable syntax at all.

The only time we've even used `op` syntax in Prince seems to be the
following operators: `xor`, `..` and `with_type`, which are all legacy
issues anyway.

There are plenty of things we'd like to change about Mercury, but operator
precedence isn't one of them :)

Cheers,

Michael
