I think plenty of other folks care bout newRPL, so please don't take a lack of comments to mean that no one else cares.

Speaking only for myself, I think extensions to existing RPL which break the general syntax and style should only be considered if the extension adds significant functionality and/or other dramatic benefits. Without such benefits, I think most users are unlikely to even bother learning these extensions, so the effort to implement (and test!) them is likely better spent on core features. Just one opinion, others may vary.
