If JS = Scratch then Coffeescript = ?

I have an idea for a new drag-n-drop programming language (so it shouldn't be in the suggestions forum or the questions forum)…

Instead of using Scratch's multiple block-type system (e.g C-blocks), all the blocks will be a “regular” block, only that the blocks will have 2 (equilateral) triangles, pointy tip facing outwards, on all sides of the block. I'll explain it with some text art:

^^
<Test block>
<Top should be centered>
vv

Instead of

indent 0 :: cstart
    indent 1
end

It's more like

^^
indent 1
vv
 ^^
 indent 2
 vv
^A space to indicate the indent

If you didn't notice, the equilateral triangles on the ends of the block are supposed to interlock with each other.

This sounds interesting, I'd like to see you make it!
