This will solve many problems and help make things easier for scientists and programmers. I don't want to say this negatively - just for constructive criticism - that the syntax of Cuneiform is quite ugly to look at. Many of the syntax design choices feel arbitrary such as the \{ and \} encapsulating functions, the need to write deftask to define a function and the really ugly function signature syntax. I mean it is almost as ugly as Perl. Please consider this issue.
