Re:Making Coffeescript’s Whitespace More Significant

(#3296708)
Java(S|s)cript != Coffee(S|s)cript

Lisp does not consider indentation significant, Python does. Smalltalk has cascading messages, Ruby doesn’t. I think these are simply design choices, and the goal is to find a set of choices that work together harmoniously.
Note that my proposed syntax still allows you all the chaining you want.
