Nice to see a pretty advanced language at frontpage of HN!
From what I understand, GRIN does some parts of supercompilation [1] during optimization process. Supercompilation can prove equivalence of functional programs [2] modulo termination. So you can have something interesting and useful in almost no time. ;)

It appears that Fuse does not have user-defined operators. Am I right? If so, it is a major obstacle in creating embedded languages.
