No. I don't really care - I don't use them, nor do I use anything
else of the operator module (so I wouldn't miss it if it was
removed entirely). I would object to their removal, though,
because it would hurt my sense of symmetry.

Regards,
Martin

P.S. If anything was to be removed, I would remove the in-place
operations altogether; i.e. a+=b should always be a=a+b. Allowing
them to be in-place complicates matters for little added value.
