Someone really ought to do an alternative "skin" for Objective-C. That is, define some reversible transformation that can be applied to any Objective-C program that only changes the surface-level details but otherwise results in mapping the exact same program into the later stages of the compiler (and the section of programmers' mental pipeline that comes after the part where their eyeballs and sense of taste are concerned). It's important that the reversible part be adhered to.

It's really kind of a bummer that we don't have well-known examples of "skinnable" programming languages already. The closest we get are the ones that let you choose your set of keywords for different locales in case you don't want to work with an English-based PL and those block based languages that let you manipulate them as blocks or edit the textual form. I firmly believe that PL skinning would really benefit so many otherwise worthwhile languages that get short-shrift because of negative reactions to the surface-level details. I'm referring in particular languages like those in the Pascal family. (You could also conceive of e.g. a skin for Golang that doesn't have leading caps be the determiner for whether a function is public or not. There are lots of applications for this, and the variations are a non-issue when you have an ecosystem with strong norms about applying a code formatter (like gofmt), which can dictate the format of the canonical on-disk representation.)
