I don't think you can define new operators.  AFAICT, the
lexing/parsing is done using the built-in Python grammar. You can
control the behavior of the predefined operators and reject operators
you don't like, but you can't add new ones or change precedence/syntax
or anything like that.

If you want to tweak the grammar itself, then I think you need to use
something like pyparsing.
