I think some max and min function is beneficial, but please don't 
introduce new operators or other magic.

Just make new standard functions max/2 and min/2. If they cause really 
big problem with legacy code containing max or min functions or atoms, 
then put it into the erlang module (i.e. mandatory erlang: prefix).

If efficiency is really needed, make it a BIF.

Even the simplest solution ( min and max _functions_ in the erlang 
module) would solve 90% of the current problem (the need to implement 
some min or max function in every second module).
