Maybe you guys should define a functional-flavoured syntax for Nice and 
implement an alternative parser? I'm sure it would appeal to functional 
programmers who want to experiement with multi-methods. That would solve 
not only this 'let' discussion, but also the part about methods inside 
classes. Have all methods outside classes, that's a very functional 
twist :-)

After all, what matters is the abstract syntax. Tools should be able to 
understand and present you with the concrete syntax you personally feel 
more comfortable with.
