It gets better with chained function calls, e.g. (D-like pseudocode):

writeln(mul(add(x, 5), 30))

vs.

x.add(5).mul(30).writeln()

Name resolution is already so insanely complicated in C++ it's hard for me to lament this too much.

Well, the works already been done so I don't care that much about language at this point.
