Do you think future, new languages, should have a JSX-like syntax built-in? Why or why not? Alternatives?

strong yes. very simply, tree data structures are super useful, *especially* for UIs, and plain functions aren't super satisfying for describing them (sorry lispers). syntax goes a long way for making these accessible to write and read.
What do you think an agonostic syntax would look like? `React.createElement` isn't a generic target, defining with @jsx annotations is also gross.

Reason translates JSX to normal function calls, which I think is a great and flexible solution not tied to a specific framework:https://reasonml.github.io/docs/en/jsx

Not sure that would work with the current React model. Functional components aren't instances of anything.

I don't have a good answer, but only because "we" (ie - the community) hasn't spent time thinking about it beyond jsx. yet.
