Hey Arnold,

Perhaps it makes sense for <=> to still operate with other types, as long
as they are uniform? Specifically:

 * error: 1 <=> "1"
 * ok: "a" <=> "b"
 * ok: true <=> false

Similar for sorting: I use <=> to differentiate multi-dimensional arrays:
perhaps it should error if the array structure differs?

The rest of the proposal makes a lot of sense to me.
