Description

Right now several operators (e.g. ! && || =~ ==~) cannot be overridden. Making all operators overridable would improve language consistency and open up new possibilities for API/DSL designers.

Clarification: By "making an operator overridable" I mean the standard Groovy way to provide an associated method that can be overridden, not some form of interception.
