And of course, I forget one.

6. (Optional, but desirable.)  Change the syntax for *defining* a
variable from "var-foo" to "$foo" as well.  This resolves the issue
that's been in the draft for a while where people want the definition
and use of a variable to use parallel syntax.  This one does require a
Core Grammar change, but it's compatible with our forward-compatible
error-handling.  (#1 might also want a grammar change so we end up
with a VAR token instead of a DELIM + IDENT pair that we then
interpret as a variable in the parser, but it's not necessary.)
