I would really like to see the current suite of And, Or, AndNot and OrNot operators replaced with And, Or and Not, all nestable in any combinations (with Not obviously being a unary operator). I think that that would give a much more natural way to model many queries and would be more natural for most programmers. (Indeed there are some queries which I believe cannot be modeled with the existing suite of four operators.)
