IIRC There is some discussion of using "-o", but then there are a whole slew of lexing/parsing issues that emerge since "o" is not part of the (vast!) class of characters Haskell considers as valid for use in operators. Regardless of that, I do kind of hope "-o" gets adopted...

I think "--[star]" could do well: the "[star]" emphasizes the "pop" in the lolly. Touch it once, and it's gone.

EDIT: Having trouble typesetting the asterisk!

* gets swallowed up for italicizing text on HN. Best way to get literal text is a line with two (or more) leading space characters:

  --*

Just -* and then pester the authors of Fira Code and Hasklig fonts (or fork) to add a ligation for the symbol when - and * appear next to each other =)

Roughly the same way we type → :)

Ha. Maybe -@
