Hmmm .. changing the precedence of operators to avoid two parentheses ...
I don't think that's good.

if y=1 then (
	let z = 2 in
	print_int y;
	print_int z;
) else
	print_string "not one"

I will however add my own pet wish: a 'return' statement!  It doesn't
have to break type safety -- you should only be allowed to 'return' a
type compatible with the ordinary return type of the function.  The
alternative (using exceptions to jump out of code) is ugly, slow and
unsafe.
