Of course, that begs the question of whether == is already "taken".
If not, we could knock one '=' off of everything above except for

== is already taken as a common typo in plpgsql scripts. I strongly prefer if this remained an error.

IF foo == bar THEN ...

That was also my reason for not suggesting == .
It is too widely used in other systems for simple equality check.
