Swift style syntax

I agree with this. This solution also disambiguates negate and minus which
is good. If we were to introduce operators as functions with syntax I would
prefer if there was some syntax to know if the operator was a binary or
unary function.

Regarding operators how does this proposal interact with the proposal for
value types and operator overloading?
