The important part to me is good ergonomics from the point of view of the programmer and reader.
Beyond that, some particulars:
* Being terse is a lower priority than usual
* Cool features are a lower priority than usual
* Be careful how you use and then re-use symbols (Haskell can be confusing this way).
* Use English (or whatever spoken language) in your symbols
