I hate the idea of voting for features, but since it might have some
affect on the language, I will add my opinion to the heap.
::: - Bad, because it's three characters.
: - Good, because it's one character, and it does not look like
something else.
\ - It's one character, but it looks like division/escape sequence.
Plus, it will raise syntactic hell in some editors.
Radical idea:
1) Use :.
2) Make : to work like ::.
3) Make : to work like ->.
4) But no one will agree to it anyway, so I stop here.
