I'd like to be able to overload the `caret`. Is there anything against this? (e.g. `operator Int.caret(x: Int): Int = Math.....`)

What precedence it should have? Like a bit-wise xor or like a power? That is a very tricky question. 

The reason I suggested this in the first place is, that we had a few mathematical formulars to write, and we quickly saw that a e.g. `2^3` is much nicer to read than `Math.pow(2, 3)`

So the answer in this case would be `power`

Hm, but precedence is a good point which must be considered...

Btw. you can do `2.0.pow(3)` in Kotlin 1.2

Hm, `**` isn't too bad. Is this already possible?

No. But `x.pow(y)` is already there and it is not much worse. Try it.
