There was a version of Python (compatible at a bytecode level) that did
implement braces for blocks.  It was called pythonb, but it is now
defunct, understandably for lack of interest.  It was just a
modification to the parser is all.  So it's completely doable.  In fact
one could probably do it with a preprocessor of some kind.  But there's
little utility in it.
