I'm not sure this "same selector multiple times" is a good idea, because it seems to assume that all selectors are associative.  What would you get from "10-6-3"?  And if it's deterministically left to right (or right to left, or whatever) without parens, why restrict that to homogeneous operators?

In Self, "4+5*6" generates complaint about a syntax error. You *must* 
use parenthesis for this to compile. The exception to the "ambiguous 
binary selectors" rule is when the same selector is used multiple times 
as in "4+5+6", though I could live without this small convenience.
