Let's try that again:

ShortFunctionExpression:
     Identifier_opt ( FormalParameterList_opt ) [no LineTerminator here]
{ FunctionBody }
     Identifier_opt ( FormalParameterList_opt ) [no LineTerminator here]
IniitialValue

But of course the second production creates bad ambiguities for all
InitialValue bodies that start with an operator or punctuator that could
be infix as well as prefix: +/-/[ at least.

More work needed. I may write a strawman up. Encourage me!
