Description

decorators are the most common construct used in the configuration language.

Currently the syntax is:

{ deco => sink }

{ deco1 =>

{ deco2 => sink}

} }

We should be able to simplify this to just use juxtaposition to make a spec with a decorators cleaner:

deco sink
deco1 deco2 sink
