Since we have this (awfully unneeded and cumbersome) construct in our language, I have to reluctantly agree with Polar. As we accepted this as a data type we need to address it with expressions in a generic way. But if I remember correctly, when we argued about higher order function, an explicit argument was given that their usage will not "spread" and be confined to the collection of standard functions. I did not buy that, and now I have a justification why. :) Daniel.
