Operator precedence -- a thought question

[Hal Fulton]

Hypothetically, suppose one wanted to introduce a new operator into
Ruby. And suppose one wanted to decide on a precedence for it.

How would you proceed?

Sure, I'm being vague. Deal with it.

Arbitrarily.

mh.. I think you should go with the precedence it has in another
language if it is imported from there. Other way, do what you want

Btw, this makes me wonder what the heck you're doing..
It seem there is some room for a RubyMutations[1] page now
