Both C++ and Java have "recently" added a succinct syntax for their equivalents.

Given the amount of work it is to add features to either platform,
quite a few people
deemed it useful there.

At least most peoples .emacs will look a bit tidier with a succinct
anonymous lambda
as an argument to add-hook :)

The syntax proposed by OP is the neatest so far, but any succinct
syntax will probably be ok.
