I disagree. While it sounds nice to have a unified syntax working on C++ compatibility/interaction is still quite key because of the mountains of legacy and new code still written everyday in it. Also, I think that the right language for the right domain and being able to glue them together is quite key in the modern computing world and using a single language in every computing domain is a chimera that can bring more pain than good.
Still, if we work out how to import C++ code well, you are probably going to get something very close to that you are wishing anyways :).
