Anyway, I always found that the application of constructor has a syntax 
to near the syntax of function application:

f (x,y) and A (x,y) are both meaningfull ...

I would prefer square bracket for constructor application, mandatory 
even for unary constructor (and maybe also constant constructor then you 
can lift the restriction about capital letter)
