One of the projects that I have only in my mind space is an Iversonian language with more data structures and the tools to easily navigate an traverse them. Trees, graphs, ... the sky is the limit. And with the power of notation as a tool of thought, and a pen interface, it would be fun to do whiteboard sessions that produced real code that could be executed as is.
OTOH I read/heard that the beauty of array languages is that they have few data types, but they can be easily worked on. So maybe the answer is not easier tree traversal primitives, but better literature/training on how to transform it in a more manageable data type.
Sometimes the answer is to adapt our vision to our world, sometimes the answer is to adapt the world to our vision.
